Pre-wired Strain Gauges: Fast, Safe and Convenient to Use

Leave the soldering to HBK and avoid a potential source of error by ordering pre-wired strain gauges. HBK has set up a “fast lane” service for small orders, which helps provide you the strain gauge you need with the cable of required length within only 10 days.

HBK strain gauges comply with current RoHS requirements, and new materials have been used in making the stranded connection wires more flexible and easier to use. TPE insulated cables allow the use in a temperature range between -40°C and 120°C.

Advantages

  • Fast installation
  • Increased reliability
  • Fluoropolymer-insulated stranded wire (with non-stick properties)
  • Temperature compensation for most materials
  • Cable length from 0.5 m to 10 m
  • RJ11 connectors for the CANHEAD amplifier system
  • Grid length from 0.6 mm to 10 mm  
  • Strain gauges with 3- and 4-wire configurations
  • Stickers for simplified parameterization and documentation
