buy load cell

They stock a wide range—vibrating wire, strain gauge, and hydraulic load cells are the main categories. Within those, you’ll find anchor load cells, load pins, compression-only cells, and center-hole designs. Most are built for geotechnical or structural monitoring, so they’re sealed against moisture and dust.

Yes, that’s one of their strengths. If the standard 1000 kN range isn’t right, they can adjust it—say, 750 kN—and often the price difference is small. The same goes for cable lengths, connectors, or mounting plates. You’ll need to discuss the details with their team, but they’re used to handling special requests.

Independent field reports suggest drift is typically less than 0.5% per year under normal conditions, which is on par with many pricier alternatives. Their vibrating wire cells, in particular, hold up well because they’re less sensitive to temperature changes. No sensor is drift-free forever, but these are built to minimize surprises.

Standard models can often ship within two to three weeks if they’re in stock. Custom ranges or special connectors add some time—usually a few extra weeks. Your sales rep will give you a firm date once the order is placed, and they’re generally realistic about it.

Every load cell comes with a traceable calibration certificate at no extra cost. It’s part of their standard package. If you need a more detailed report or specific test points, that might add a small fee, but it’s something they can arrange.
