LW Serie Load Wedge Sockets

Low-Profile Washer Load Cell for Load Wedge Sockets

Instrument wire-rope terminations with confidence. The LW Series is a compact, washer-type load cell engineered to sit at the cable termination and measure the force applied inside Load Wedge Sockets—delivering precise, repeatable readings where space is tight and reliability is critical.

Typical applications

  • Measuring terminal force inside Load Wedge Sockets on wire ropes
  • Pre-load bolt assembly and structural fastener monitoring
  • Force testing on presses and industrial machines
  • General compression/load monitoring where a washer-type sensor is preferred

  • Industries: Construction, Industry, Logistics, Mining, Offshore, Silos
  • Aplications: Calibration, Clamping Forces, Measurement, Monitoring, Overhead Crane, Tank Weighing, Testing Equipment, Tightening Forces, Winch Systems
  • Categories: Load Cells, Load Wedge Sockets
