Model LLB130 is a Miniature Load Button designed for Press, or Inline compression applications. The LLB130 Miniature Load Button model is made from a robust 17-4 PH Stainless Steel, with a subminiature 0.38 inch outside diameter and low profile height of 0.13 inch. The load cell is compensated internally for temperature and zero balance, unlike other manufacturers that perform this outside of the part.

Product Highlights:

• Miniature size – 0.38 dia x 0.13 H
• Lightweight: 0.3 oz
• Capacity ranges: 5 – 50 lbs. (22.2 – 222 N)
• Internal zero balance and temperature compensation

The IBT500 Bench Top Digital Display is FUTEK’s solution for customers who like all the features and capabilities of the IPM500 Panel Mount Series. Unlike the IPM500, this Digital Display requires bench top features, such as “quick disconnect” for both mechanical and power protection to meet OSHA manufacturing safety requirement. This display also comes with RS232, TEDS, Analog Output, and Alarms/Relays.

Product Highlights:

• Features 60 conversions per second
• Scalable to 5 digits ±99,999
• Front push button tare and shunt cal
• Shunt cal resistor for calibration
• Power supply of 9 to 37 VDC
• RS232, TEDS IEEE1451.4. Analog Output (0 to 10 VDC or 4-20 mA, 2 Relays/Alarm set points

Rod couplers simplify cylinder alignment problems by compensating for 1-2 degrees angular error and 1/16” lateral misalignment on both extension and retraction (push and pull) strokes. Couplers have a unique bearing element that allows for internal spherical motion to compensate for external misalignment.

Product Highlights:

• Made from high strength steel
• Available thread sizes from ¼-28 to 1 ¼-12
• Compensates 1-2 degrees misalignment
