Force gauges & test measurement

Force gauges & test measurement brings together hand-held instruments for measuring push, pull and tension forces. Quality inspectors, packaging engineers, ergonomics assessors and workshop technicians choose from this Instruments & Spare Parts sub-category when a simple, direct force reading is needed without a test stand.

Kern supplies all 193 listings. The Kern 283 series of mechanical force gauges, including the 283-152, 283-252, 283-302 and 283-402, is listed in several models so the gauge can be matched to the expected load. Mechanical gauges need no battery and give a direct dial reading, which suits field and workshop use.

Select a gauge whose capacity sits comfortably above the maximum force you expect, so that readings fall in the usable part of the scale, and check that the attachments suit the sample. Pair the gauge with calibration weights to verify it periodically. Lancetech Limited can quote any Kern force gauge or test measurement item.
