Mechanical gauge is recommended as a substitute for the Whittemore strain gauge for many applications. Designed to measure strain in masonry-type materials, structural components under load, opening or closing of structural cracks, measuring relative structural displacements, rock mechanics testing and drying shrinkage of concrete block testing. Instrument frame is cast aluminum alloy with 5 master settings of 2, 4, 6, 8和10英寸, 容易设置测量. 刻度盘指示器 .0001" minimum graduation; effective strain range is 0.3". Maximum linear measurement is 0.4". Set includes: strain gauge, 千分表, 8个黄铜镶件, 2个接触座, 2个安装的接触点, 英瓦尔主条, punch bar and one compartmented wood storage case. Metric model has 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25cm settings and 千分表 with 002mm graduations.
