Description

Model LCF400 is a Pancake Load Cell that has an exceptional flexure design to resist high extraneous loads. This is primarily due to its one-piece construction. Typical applications include Fatigue and Endurance Testing where long performance cycles are required. The standard LCF400 Pancake Load Cell model has female/female threads, is made of 17-4 Stainless Steel and has a broad capacity ranging from 250 lbs to 5,000 lbs.

This Pancake Load Cell utilizes metal foil strain gauge technology that offers the highest accuracy. It has Nonlinearity of ±0.10%, Bridge Resistance of 700 Ohms, and Deflection of 0.001" to 0.004” nominal. The standard LCF400 Pancake Load Cell can be modified or customized to meet your requirements and most models are in our inventory making them available for quick delivery. Similar to our entire Load Cell product line, this model is manufactured in US.
