S-Type (Tension / Compression) Load Cells

S-type load cells, ideal for tension and compression applications, measure force through deformation at both ends, offering high accuracy for small to medium loads. Their design, named for their shape, includes strain gauges at deflection points to detect changes, ensuring precise weight or force measurements. Available in aluminum, alloy steel, and stainless steel, they are used in various applications such as hanging scales, cranes, and dynamometer testing machines, with various capacitiy ranges.
