Rod End Load Cells 101

Rod end load cells are designed to measure the tension and compression forces applied to a rod or similar structure. This type of load cell consists of a rod with a threaded connector. The load cell's strain gage measures the deformation caused by the applied force. Interface Rod End Load Cells, including our REC and WMC models, utilize proprietary temperature compensated strain gages for high-accuracy measurement. Rod End Load Cells 101 shares the benefits, common applications and available products for this style of load cell.
