high capacity FORCE GAUGEs SERIES CG

The Series CG High Capacity Digital Force Gauge is ideal for heavy duty spring testing, destructive testing, and other force measurement applications requiring up to 1,000 lb of tensile or compressive force. These force gauges include all the advanced features of the Series BG, and are housed in ultra-rugged reversible aluminum housings for years of use in laboratory or factory environments.

Use MESURgauge Software to tabulate, graph, and analyze test data (more info)
