Double Ended Shear Beam Load Cell – Heavy-Duty Accuracy for Industrial Weighing

Rugged. Reliable. Engineered for High-Capacity Applications.

A double ended shear beam load cell is one of the most widely used heavy-duty sensors in industrial weighing. Known for their robust stainless-steel design, high accuracy, and ability to handle extreme loads, they are the preferred choice for truck scales, silos, hoppers, and large industrial platforms.

At Sensors and Gauges, we supply ISO-calibrated double ended shear beam load cells, ensuring your operations run with precision and reliability.

What is a Double Ended Shear Beam Load Cell?

A double ended shear beam load cell measures force through shear strain applied to the beam. Unlike single-point or single-ended designs, this sensor is mounted at both ends and loaded in the center, which:

  • Improves stability under heavy loads.

  • Ensures accurate weight measurement even with lateral forces.

  • Provides long service life in harsh environments.

They are typically stainless steel with hermetic sealing (IP67/IP68) for maximum protection against dust, water, and chemicals.


Key Benefits of Double Ended Shear Beam Load Cells

  • High Capacity – Suitable for loads from 5 tons to over 50 tons.

  • Durability – Rugged build withstands harsh industrial use.

  • Accuracy – OIML/NTEP approved for trade use.

  • Easy Installation – Designed for mounting with standard kits.

  • Maintenance-Free – Hermetically sealed against moisture and dust.

  • Versatility – Works in silos, tanks, hoppers, and large platforms.


Applications

  1. Truck Scales / Weighbridges – High-capacity, legal-for-trade weighing.

  2. Silos & Hopper Weighing – Bulk material measurement.

  3. Industrial Platforms – Large-scale manufacturing operations.

  4. Tank Weighing – Liquid and bulk storage systems.

  5. Mining & Construction – Rugged performance in extreme conditions.
