Why Engineers Buy Our Force Sensors
Built for fatigue testing
Our shear web design is guaranteed against fatigue failure for 100 million fully reversed cycles. Good for life cycle and test-to-failure work.
High accuracy, low deflection
Nonlinearity and hysteresis as low as 0.07%, with deflection under 0.002 inch for a stiff, repeatable load path.
Custom designs welcome
We design, engineer and manufacture in house. Non-standard capacities, sizes and mounting are part of what we do.
Calibration and certification
In-house calibration and recalibration with certification. Free calibration when used with SensorData electronics.
Made to take side loads
SAE 4340 alloy steel with satin nickel finish resists bending and off-center loading with minimal crosstalk.
Backed by a guarantee
100% satisfaction guarantee on all standard sensors with a 60-day return policy.
Force Measurement Devices We Build
Our force sensor line covers pancake and shear web load cells, compression load cells, low-profile high-stiffness models for material testing machines, and general purpose force transducers. Every unit is made from SAE 4340 alloy steel with a satin nickel finish.
If a catalog model does not fit, we design one that does. Multi-axis force sensors, X-Y force sensors and 4-component units are also available, along with signal conditioning electronics and cable assemblies.
- F312 fatigue rated low profile shear web: 200, 500, 1K, 2K, 3K lb
- F341-F347 series: 5K through 500K lb at 0.07% accuracy
- F200 compression load cell: 5K to 50K lb, under 2.5 in diameter
- F502 hollow compression cell: 5K to 100K lb, 2 in tall, 4 in diameter
- F654 load cell: 5K to 25K lb with 1-14 UNF threads
- M231 X-Y force sensor: 2 mV/V per axis, crosstalk under 0.5%
- Works with AC carrier or DC strain gage signal conditioning
- Optional tension plates, spherical load buttons and cable assemblies

Frequently asked questions
How much does a force measurement device cost?
Pricing is quote based. Cost depends on capacity, accuracy, mounting style and whether the unit is standard or custom. Send your specs and we will price it.
Can you build a sensor that is not in the catalog?
Yes. Custom sensor design, engineering and manufacturing is a core service. Custom capacities and configurations are available on our force and multi-axis lines.
What does fatigue rated mean?
Our fatigue rated load cells are guaranteed against fatigue failure for 100 million fully reversed cycles, which suits life cycle and structural fatigue testing.
Do you calibrate sensors?
Yes. We offer in-house calibration, recalibration and calibration certification. Calibration is free with SensorData electronics and available for a fee with customer-supplied electronics.
Do you ship outside the United States?
Yes. We sell across the United States and internationally, including Europe and other global markets.
What if the sensor is not right for my test?
Standard sensors carry a 100% satisfaction guarantee with a 60-day return policy.
