Force Gauges FTS-HD Shimpo

The FTS-HD is a high capacity force test system engineered for precise & repeatable measurements of push or pull forces up to 1000lbs. A smooth operating turn-wheel provides a precise 0.1″ travel per revolution. The FTS-HD heavy duty construction provides repeatable and reliable testing for many years. The FTS-HD features adjustable height ranges, customizable lengths (for different sample sizes) and an option for a digital length/height meter.
