Load Rings for Soil Testing, 5,000lbf
Load Rings, also known as proving rings, are high-precision instruments engineered for accurate force measurement in laboratory soil testing applications. Crafted from high-strength aluminum alloy, these rings rely on controlled elastic deformation to deliver consistent and repeatable load readings with an impressive accuracy of ±0.5%. Each unit comes with a mechanical dial indicator featuring a fine resolution of 0.0001in, ensuring detailed and precise measurements. A calibration chart is also included, allowing users to easily calculate force values based on the degree of ring deformation.
Available in eight capacities ranging from 250 to 10,000lbf, Load Rings are versatile enough to accommodate a wide variety of laboratory testing requirements. Their 1/2in x 20tpi mounting hole ensures seamless compatibility with Gilson and other leading manufacturers' load frames and direct shear units, making them a flexible addition to any testing setup.
