Load Rings for Soil Testing, 10,000lbf
Load Rings, also known as proving rings, are high-precision instruments engineered from premium high-strength aluminum alloy. Designed for reliable and accurate force measurement, they work through repeatable elastic deformation, making them an essential tool for soil testing and other laboratory applications. With an exceptional accuracy of ±0.5%, these rings deliver consistent, dependable readings every time.
Force measurements are captured using the included mechanical dial indicator, which features a fine resolution of 0.0001 in., ensuring precise data collection. Each Load Ring also comes with a comprehensive calibration chart, simplifying the process of calculating force values based on deformation readings — saving time and reducing the risk of errors in the lab.
Available in eight capacities ranging from 250 to 10,000 lbf, these Load Rings are versatile enough to accommodate a wide range of testing requirements. The 1/2 in x 20 tpi mounting hole ensures seamless compatibility with Gilson load frames, direct shear units, and a variety of other testing equipment, making integration into your existing setup straightforward and hassle-free.
