Strain Gauges from Bestech Australia


Product/Service Name

Strain gauges are used to determine the stress in a structure by bonding them on the surface of the specimen and measuring the resultant change in its resistance. A wide range of strain gauges are available from Bestech for various applications.





Function/Applications
-General purpose foil gauge for stress concentration, torque etc.
-Transducer strain gauges with creep compensation
-Waterproof gauge with coating of epoxy resin and integral lead wire
-Temperature integrated strain gauge with thermocouple
-Polyester backed foil strain gauges for metal, concrete and mortar
-Wood strain gauge for long term measurement on wood
-Metal backing strain gauge for concrete surface
-Magnetic field use strain gauge with twisted or shielded lead wire
-Mold strain gauge is embedded in concrete or mortar for loading test
-Asphalt strain gauge with waterproofing and heat resistance up to 200°C
-Composite material strain gauge
-Post-yield strain gauge for large strain measurement up to 20%
-Foil strain gauge for wood and gypsum, low elastic modulus materials
-Foil strain gauges for plastics, temperature compensated for acrylic or epoxy resin
-Foil strain gauge for cryogenic temperature usable to -196°C
-Foil strain gauge for high temperature to 300°C
-Weldable strain gauges installed by spot welding for high temperature to 800°C
-Bolt gauge is embedded in a pre-drilled hole of a bolt for axial strain measurement
-One-side gauge:  Separated measurement of bending and axial strains of a plate
-Crack strain gauge to measure length of crack
-Semiconductor strain gauges for high gauge factor

Differentiating Features

-Simple construction with a small mass and volume so as not to interfere with the stresses on the specimen
-Small gauge length for evaluation of localized stress
-Good frequency response for tracking rapid fluctuations in stress
-Simultaneous measurement of multiple points and remote points
-Electrical output for easy data processing
