Types of Strain Gauges

General Purpose Strain Gauges

Reliable foil gauges for everyday stress and deformation measurement across metals and standard engineering materials.

Composite & Plastic Material Gauges

Designed for materials such as CFRP and GFRP, these gauges minimise errors caused by temperature changes and material reinforcement effects.

Extended Temperature Gauges

Specialised gauges capable of measuring strain in extreme temperatures from cryogenic conditions up to very high heat, ideal for energy and aerospace applications.

Ultra Small Strain Gauges

Compact semiconductor gauges with high sensitivity for applications where space is limited or strain levels are very small.

Strain Gauge Applications

Strain gauges are used in a wide range of testing and monitoring scenarios.

Structural engineering

Monitoring bridges, buildings, dams, and other infrastructure to ensure long-term structural integrity.

Automotive and aerospace testing

Measuring stress on vehicle frames, aircraft components, and critical mechanical parts during development.

Materials testing

Studying how metals, composites, and plastics behave under tension, compression, and repeated loading.

Industrial monitoring

Measuring load, torque, and vibration in machinery and production equipment.
