Overview
The MK510 is a compression-and-bending load cell engineered to measure the flexural and compressive strength of cement, concrete, masonry and other construction materials. Its rugged cantilever construction delivers a stable force output over a broad capacity range, and simple, well-compatible mounting makes it easy to integrate into test rigs. It suits construction-quality inspection, materials research and production quality control.
Key Features
- Measures both compressive and flexural (bending) loads
- Wide, adaptable capacity range
- Rugged body for a stable, repeatable force output
- Simple mounting with good instrument compatibility
- High accuracy (±0.03%F.S) for precise measurement
- Alloy steel (Ni-plated) elastic element for durability and corrosion resistance
Applications
Typically installed on concrete and mortar testing machines, compression and bending test frames, and laboratory quality-control benches for construction materials.
