Load Button for Compression Loads

Load buttons are used to align forces through the principle axis of the load cell. This reduces the effects of extraneous forces and improves the performance of the load cell. These load buttons are suitable for all compressive load cells on our website with threaded ports.

  • Description

Description

Load Buttons and Rod End Bearings are designed to align forces through the principle axis of the load cell thus reducing the effects of extraneous forces, hence offering improved performance from the cell.

Load buttons are used where compressive forces are applied and Rod End Bearings are used where tensile forces are being applied.

Features

  • Supports Radial Loads in Compressive Direction
  • Suitable for Unilateral Loads
  • Stainless Steel Construction
  • Maintenance Free
  • Can support alternating loads in combination with rod end bearings
