Flat Load Cells Overview

Strainsert has been designing and manufacturing precision Flat Load Cells for nearly half a century. The load cells are instrumented with the same proprietary unique strain gaging technique perfected by Strainsert and used so successfully in Strainsert Bolts, Load Pins, and Tension Links for many research, testing and control applications.

	Universal Flat Load Cells Strainsert standard Universal Flat Load Cells are offered in a wide force measurement range from 250 up to 2 million pounds. They are designed to measure forces in both tension and compression directions.
	Compression Flat Load Cells Compression Flat Load Cells are also offered in a wide force measurement range from 250 up to 2.5 million pounds. These load cells are designed to measure forces in the compression direction in many common aerospace, automotive and industrial applications.
	Metric Universal Flat Load Cells The Metric Universal Flat Load Cells are simply Universal Flat Load Cells designed for tension/compression force measurements, with the difference being they are designed to interface with metric loading rods/hardware and they are calibrated in SI units.
	Fatigue Rated Universal Flat Load Cells The Fatigue Rated Flat Load Cells are similar to the Universal Flat Load Cell Models and are designed for fatigue measurement/control applications in both tension, and or tension/compression directions. The load cells possess very low deflection, high natural frequencies, and a One Billion cycles Fatigue rating!
	Standard Flat Load Accessories Strainsert offers a variety of load cell accessories designed for ease of load cell installation and use, including; mounting bases for interfacing the load cell with various loading rods, spherical load buttons for compression loading on Universal Flat Load Cells, and Compression Load buttons for use with Compression Flat Load cells.
	Standard Flat Load Cell Installation Instructions Installation instructions are available to ensure proper installation and operation of Universal, Fatigue Rated, and Compression Flat Load Cell Models.
	Standard Flat Load Cell Technical Information Flat Load Cell Technical information is listed including mechanical properties (deflections, frequencies, etc) and Extraneous Loading Capabilities.
