Understanding Dual Shear Load Cells
Interface dual shear load cells are strain gage sensors supported at both ends, with the force applied directly at the center of the beam. A double-ended shear beam load cell design is used in the high-performing Interface LowProfiles and load pins. The dual-ended design distributes force symmetrically across two matched shear webs. Strain gages are bonded to the machined webs inside the beam and configured in a full Wheatstone bridge circuit to convert mechanical shear stress into an electrical mV/V signal.

Robust Load Pins Measure Force with Accuracy
Interface load pins are load cells commonly used in lifting, weighing, hoisting, rigging, and retrofitting for accurate force measurement. The load pins are versatile, rugged, and easy to integrate into existing equipment. They are used in infrastructure, aerospace structural testing labs, parts in industrial machines, for optimizing manufacturing, in submersible maritime equipment, and for oil and gas top drives.
