Custom Strain Gages – (Strain Gage Installation Service)

Unusual applications occasionally require a strain gage which is neither listed in the catalog nor available by adding special optional features. Often a custom product can be designed to fit such needs. Careful consideration is given to the backing, foil, S-T-C, gage length, pattern, resistance and resistance tolerance, operating temperature range, test duration, maximum strain, cyclic endurance, leads, encapsulation, and trim so that the custom gage is designed to properly meet the user’s needs. Examples of custom gages include such features as unusual patterns, special trim dimensions, and nonstandard lead materials or length. A special part number is normally assigned to each custom gage. Doing so ensures that the correct gage is produced each time it is ordered. A set-up charge and a minimum order will normally apply.
