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)
