Model 3173
Tension/Compression
Pancake Load Cell
DESCRIPTION
load cells are well suited to materials testing machines and other
The Model 3173 covers the lower capacity ranges of 200
applications requiring a rugged load sensor. Often ideal for high
pounds force to 3000 pounds force, while exhibiting the high
cycle count applications.
