Force Gauges From Tuffaloy

T.J. Snow supplies a broad range of Tuffaloy weld force gauges, available with accuracies ranging from 99.5% to 97%. All gauges are available in English and metric readouts. Force gauges enable the operator or mechanic to measure the amount of force applied to a part in order to insure correct set-up and consistency over time.

We also offer digital and analog Force Gauges from other manufactures, such as APS. Feel free to contact us today for help selecting the right force gauge for your application.

 
Digital Weld Force Gauges
Digital-Electronic Weld Probe Digital-Electronic Digital-Hydraulic

The Digital-Electronic gauges supply the highest accuracy (99.5% for 95% of the gauge's range), though at a greater cost. These gauges have a large LCD readout with peak-hold capabilities and optional output ports for external monitoring. Both models have extensions available, and since all functions are electronic, variance due to extension-flexing is avoided.

The Digital-Hydraulic gauge delivers better accuracy than standard hydraulic gauges at a lower price than the all-digital models. The peak hold feature allows for reading variable forces. Gauges maintain an accuracy of 99% for 30-90% of the gauge's range.

All digital gauges have models with capacities of 3,000 lbs. (1360 kg). 

 


 
Standard Weld Force Gauges
Standard-Hydraulic Standard-Hydraulic with 12" Extension High-Capacity Hydraulic

The Standard-Hydraulic gauges are the low-cost method for obtaining general force measurements. These gauges are available in a standard block style with optional extensions. Sizes range from 50 lbs. up to 50 tons with an error margin of 2% at the average value and 3% for 70% of the scale outside the average. 

Note: Hydraulic gauges should be selected to be used near their mid-range for best accuracy.
