Strain gauges for fiber composites

The four gauges comprise two linear versions – one with, and one without, strain relief – a strain gauge with three measuring grids and a strain gauge with a T-rosette. Typical properties are a measuring grid length of 6mm and a resistance of 350ohm. The temperature adaptation of these strain gauges is normally close to 0ppm/°C. 

HBM provides an extensive range of accessories and different specialist articles to highlight various aspects of measuring strain in fiber composites. The company also supports its customers with training and contract installation to ensure optimum operational usage.
