Product Announcements: Strain Gauges

The COLUMBIA Fatigue-Monitor Strain Sensor may be bonded to critical airframe surfaces using conventional strain-gage bonding techniques. The unique construction and small size of the 2684 Series permits easy application with a new and higher level of accuracy and mechanical integrity. The four, #26 AWG, Teflon-insulated lead wires eliminate the tedious and difficult termination methods... (read more)

Columbia's foil strain sensors monitor the fatigue loading experienced by tactical aircraft under various conditions of speed, weight and missions configuration. Critical undercarriage structures and control surfaces may be monitored for fatigue damage induced by high-G maneuvers and high stress landings. These sensors are self-temperatures compensating, environmental resistant, have a h... (read more)

Micron Instruments Semiconductor Strain Gages are devices which vary in resistance as strain is applied to them. This makes them very useful in measuring extremely small amounts of force with accuracy & precision. Creative uses for these gages have ranged from the measurement of internal pressures inside solid rocket engines to delicate medical apparatus used in microsu... (read more)

Micron Instruments Semiconductor Backed Gages

• Easy Install
• Ideal for prototyping
• Linearity compensation

Mounted on a flexible backing with versatile solder pads makes them easy to install. They can be bent without hurting the gage and will perform like a foil gage except that the sensitivity change is 50 to 75 times greater. (read more)
