Dillion Force AP Mechanical Dynamometers

It has proven its value in such diverse jobs as mounting cables for bridges, adjusting tension on guy wires, field testing chain, rope, wire anything requiring precision force or tension measurement.

Features:

• Accuracy: ± 0.5% of full scale capacity for precise data.
• Broadest range of capacities and resolutions are certain to fit your needs.
• Wide temperature range for use in nearly any environment (-50 to 140°F / -45 to 60°C)
• Large safety factor for overload protection and long life.
• No batteries required.
• Dial size choice for the best in portability or visibility.
• Anti-parallax dial and pointer produce accurate readings from any perspective.
• Maximum hand retains peak load point and is easily reset.
• Zero control cancels preset loads (backside).
• High strength case resists heavy blows.
• Generous shackle openings mate with most hooks and hardware.
• High specification materials on all load components. Heat treated to tight tolerances.
• Durable powder coat paint provides outstanding protection.
• Offset load beam eases tension measurement.
