Rod End Load Cell – Precision Inline Force Measurement for Testing & Automation
Compact, Reliable, and Easy-to-Integrate Load Cells
A rod end load cell is a tension and compression force sensor with threaded or clevis-style connections, making it easy to mount directly into mechanical linkages, actuators, and test machines. These sensors are designed for accurate inline force measurement, making them essential in aerospace testing, automotive development, robotics, and industrial automation systems.
At Sensors and Gauges, we supply rod end load cells in Australia, offering ISO-calibrated, high-precision sensors supported with local stock and expert guidance to meet your testing and automation needs.
Why Choose a Rod End Load Cell?
Rod end load cells are designed for applications where space is limited but high accuracy is required.
Key Benefits of Rod End Load Cells
Inline Measurement – Captures tensile and compressive forces directly.
Easy Integration – Threaded or clevis ends for quick installation.
Compact Design – Fits into space-constrained systems.
High Accuracy – Ideal for research and quality control testing.
Durable Construction – Stainless steel/alloy steel for long-term reliability.
Rod end load cells are widely used in industries where force measurement must be integrated directly into mechanical systems:
Aerospace & Defence – Flight control system testing and structural monitoring.
Automotive & Motorsport – Suspension, brake, and chassis force measurement.
Robotics & Automation – Inline load monitoring for actuators and end-effectors.
Research & Development – Lab testing and material evaluation.
Industrial Machinery – Monitoring forces in presses, actuators, and hydraulic systems.
