Chatillon LG-500N Mechanical Force Gauge, 500 N x 2.5 N

Capacity: 500 newtons

The Chatillon LG series mechanical force gauge is ideal for a wide range of force testing applications. Based on the popular DPP series force gauge, the LG series push pull gauges feature a larger, 2.25 dial for improved resolution and readability, peak hold function, ergonomic shape, and improved accuracy of +/-0.5% of full scale. The LG series force gauges are an excellent, economical solution for tensile or compression testing.

Chatillon LG series force gauges feature durable, plastic housing that fits naturally in the hand for a comfortable and firm grip even at maximum loads. Gauges can be mounted to a test stand for ever greater control and consistent results in repetitive testing applications. Easy to read concentric dial measures clockwise only. Dial rotates 360 degrees for taring. A peak hold button captures peak readings and can be easily and quickly returned to zero. A mechanical overload feature protects the gauge from damage. Available in lbs, kgs or N units of measure.

LG series force gauges come complete with a protective carrying case and a set of stainless steel attachments. A Certificate of Calibration with Data is supplied standard.
