FTP Series
Protected Gage

This gage was developed for rapid, on-site strain measurements without the need to connect the lead wire or apply waterproofing or mechanical protection. The gage is sealed in epoxy resin, housed in a light but rigid plastic case, and comes with a 5-meter long integral wire. It is available in several configurations: a single axis gage with 3-wire connection, a 2-axis cross gage, or a 3-axis rosette and full bridge pattern.
