Tension
Links Force and Load Sensing from Strainsert (Shackle
Tension Link) are superior performance sensors, for
use in weighing and force measuring applications. Tension
Links sensing element consists of a strain gauge bridge
circuit installed in a small hole along its longitudinal
axis.
This unique arrangement provides a most effective means
for the protection and sealing of the strain gauge circuit
while minimizing the adverse effects of extraneous torsional
and flexural loads.
Tension Links can be suitably modified for underwater
use, at hydrostatic pressure levels up to and exceeding
10,000 psi.

Standard load ranges: 1,500 lbs. to 300,000 lbs., higher
loads are custom designed.
