Durham Instruments carries many HBM strain gauges for stress analysis

The HBM M series of strain gauges

HBM Test and Measurement is a major producer of industrial measurement solutions, andDurham Instrumentssupplies many of them, including more than a dozen strain gauges for stress analysis. Strain-gauge sensors are essential for electrical measurement techniques applied for analyzing mechanical quantities, and they come in numerous patterns for experimental analysis of stress.

Thirteen options for stress analysis

Durham Instrumentscarries the following 13 strain-gauge options for stress analysis:

• C series for extreme temperature.Perfect for structural tests at exceptional temperature conditions. Enormous temperature range, measuring accurately in temperatures as low as -269 degrees Celsius.
• DY series with two parallel measuring grids.These gaugesare recommended for measurements on bending beams. Available in various sizes, geometries, and responses to different materials.
• KFU series for high temperatures.Ideal for structural tests at temperatures of up to 350 degrees Celsius. Typically used for strain measurements on autoclaves or under steam.
• KY strain-gauge chains for determining strain gradients.These gauges each consist of ten or 15 very small measuring grids placed on common carriers at constant spaces, plus one compensation gauge.
• LY series with one measuring grid.The first choice for strain measurement in one direction.
• LY11 micro strain gauge.Carrier size of two by 1.2 millimetres. Perfect for testing the stability of printed circuit boards.
• M series for high alternating loads.Foil gauges for stress analysis of fibre composites and other materials with high fatigue strength.
• Pre-wired strain gauges.为更快、更容易安装和更多reliable measurement.
• RY strain-gauge rosettes with three measuring grids.For analyzing bi-axial stress states with unknown principal directions.
• TT-3/100-temperature sensors.Perfect for measuring strain and temperature values.
• VY full-bridge gauges with four measuring grids.Recommended for measurements on tension/compression bars and torsion bars and determining shear stresses in shear beams.
• XY T rosettes with two measuring grids.For analysis of a bi-axial stress state with known principal directions.
• XY torsion/shear gauges with two measuring grids.V-shaped gauges for measurements on torsion bars and shear stresses in neutral fibres.
