- Digital Force Gauges - Digital readout of results, some gauges have outputs, break detection, load averaging.
- Mechanical Force Gauges - Analog readout of results. Since it doesn't run on battery, it does not need to be charged.
- Ergonomic Force Gauge Kits - Includes attachments used in strength assessment and ergonomic testing.
- Hydraulic Force Gauges - Occasional force checks, continuous loading, or permanent installation. Available in capacities up to 1.6 MN.
Most of the gauges come with a NIST calibration certificate. Please see the product page "Included Items" for certificate information specific to the product. We also offer ISO17025 calibration for an additional charge that will show as an option on the product page.

Frequently Asked Questions about Force Gauges
Consider your required
- Force range
- Accuracy needs
- Will you need data output for analysis.
- Will it be used with a test stand stand and grips? What test stands are compatible with the force gauge?
- Is a NIST calibration certificate of ISO 17025 accredited certficate needed.
It’s recommended to calibrate at least once per year, or more frequently for critical or high-use applications.
Common accessories include grips, hooks, compression plates, extension rods, and adapters—chosen based on the type of sample being tested.
Mechanical (analog) force gauges use a calibrated spring and a dial or needle to display force. They do require batteries.
Digital force gauges use a load cell sensor for measuring mechanical force. They usually offer higher accuracy, data output ports, digital readout, and selectable units of measure.
