TENSION LINKS

Tension links (also called traction rods) are sensors that measure tensile forces. They are commonly installed at the rope endpoint of a hoisting.

All models are customizable to your specification. Please contact us for quotes or if you need assistance in selecting the right kind of sensor for your application.
