Dillon AP 30007-0158 Dynamometer, 10 in dial, 1000 x 5 kg

Originally designed to measure the tension on telephone wires, the dynamometer has proven to have limitless versatility as a tension, traction and weight measuring instrument. It has been used for such diverse jobs as mounting cables for bridges, adjusting tension on guy wires, field testing chain, rope and wire -- anything requiring precision force or tension measurement. For critical overhead lifting applications, we suggest the Dillon APxtreme dynamometer.

Utility companies count on the Model AP dynamometer. Communication tower erectors employ several dynamometers during installation to properly tension guy wires. The Dillon dynamometer is also working every day for the aviation industry and is used worldwide in military installations.

• Accuracy: +/-0.5% of full range - if precision data is what you need, theres a Dillon dynamometer for every force measurement task.
