Force Sensing Tension Links
The Strainsert Tension Links, also called Tension Load Cells or Tension Link Load Cells, utilize the internal strain gage process perfected by Strainsert during the last sixty years and used so successfully in Strainsert bolts, load pins, and load cells. The sensing element consists of a strain gage bridge circuit internally installed in a small hole along the longitudinal axis. This unique arrangement provides a most effective means for the protection and sealing of the internal electronics while minimizing the adverse effects of extraneous torsional and bending loads.
