 | Accessories |
| Cleaning agents, aids for bonding, solder terminals, and more... Everything you need for a good strain gauge application. |
| Adhesives |
| Bonding material to attach your strain gauges to the test object. |
| Low Cost Strain Gauges |
| Low cost strain gauges suitable for structural strain measurement in civil engineering laboratories and other general purpose applications. |
| Optical Strain Gauges |
| HBM's optical strain gages are made from fibers of glass with a very small core diameter of no more than 5 micrometers. The fiber core is surrounded by a cladding layer from purest glass with a diameter of 125 micrometers. The optical effect that is used for strain measurement is because of the distance of the reflection points and therefore the wavelength of the reflected light being changed by the induced strain. Optical strain gauges are insensitive to electromagnetic fields, can potentially be used in highly explosive atmospheres, and can operate up to 10 million load cycles at ±3.000 µm/m alternating strain. |
| Pressure Measurement |
| Measurement gauge for transient pressure measurement |
| Protective Coatings |
| Strain gauge covering agents to protect your strain gauges against external effects. |
| Strain Gauges |
| Used to measure the strain of an object. Consists of an insulating flexible backing which supports a metallic foil pattern. The gauge is attached to the object by a suitable adhesive. As the object is deformed, the foil is deformed, causing its electrical resistance to change. This resistance change, usually measured using a Wheatstone bridge, is related to the strain by the quantity known as the gauge factor. |
| Temperature Sensor |
| The temperature sensor that is installed as easily as a strain gauge. |
