Description

The LCF555 Pancake Load Cell (Tension Base) is the LCF550 with an added Tension Base option. The LCF555 Pancake Load Cell (Tension Base) has a very robust construction designed for applications in both tension and compression. The flexure is made from 17-4 Stainless Steel and it is currently offered in a 100,000 lbs capacity. An option for Fatigue Rating and Amplified Version is also available. With the addition of the Tension Base, the LCF555 Pancake Load Cell can be used in Inline Applications on Actuators or Threaded Assemblies.

 

The Pancake Load Cell (Tension Base) offers high accuracy. It has Nonlinearity of ±0.1% and Deflection of 0.002” to 0.005” nominal. The standard LCF555 Pancake Load Cell (Tension Base) can be modified or customized to meet your requirements. Similar to our entire Load Cell product line this model is manufactured in US and uses metal foil strain gauge technology.
