FSH04029 Rod End Load Cell

Model LCB400 is a Rod End Load Cell (Tension/Compression) designed for applications involving Inline Actuators or Hydraulic Jacks with Male/Female Threads. The standard LCB400 Rod End Load Cell (Tension/Compression) model has male/female threads, uses a lightweight 2024 Aluminum for lower capacities and a robust 17-4 Stainless Steel for the higher capacities. This model is well suited for the mid range to high range capacity requirements (1,000 lb – 10,000 lb). For any applications that require a higher capacity range, please refer to the LCB450.

This Rod End Load Cell (Tension/Compression) has high accuracy and high stiffness. It has Nonlinearity of ±0.5% and Deflection of 0.001” nominal. The standard LCB400 Rod End Load Cell (Tension/Compression) can be modified or customized to meet your requirements and most models are in our inventory, making them available for 24 hour shipping. Similar to our entire Load Cell product line, this model is manufactured in US, and uses metal foil strain gauge technology.

The LCB400 can also be used as a winch load cell in applications that require accurate inline force monitoring during lifting, pulling, or tensioning operations. In winch systems, reliable load feedback is critical for monitoring line tension, improving control, and helping protect equipment from overload conditions. With its compact rod end design, high stiffness, and ability to measure both tension and compression, the LCB400 is well suited for OEM and industrial systems that require dependable force measurement in a small, easy-to-integrate package.
