Ball and Cup Double-Ended Shear Beam Load Cell for Weighbridges – C3
Price on Request
Weighbridge load cell: double-ended shear beam with self-centring steel ball and cup, C2/C3, 2.0 mV/V, nickel-plated tool steel, 12 m cable. For truck, rail and ground scales.
This is a ball-and-cup type double-ended shear beam load cell for weighbridges. The load passes through a steel ball seated in cups, which centres the load and gives the cell high tolerance to side loads, so the bridge stays accurate as trucks brake and turn on it. It is made of electroless nickel-plated hardened tool steel for harsh outdoor use, and suits truck scales, rail scales and ground scales.
Why it suits weighbridges
- Self-centring ball design. The steel ball returns the load to centre, cutting errors from platform movement.
- High side-load tolerance and stable performance under traffic.
- Rugged construction. Hardened tool steel with electroless nickel plating for harsh, varied environments.
- Accuracy class C2 / C3 for legal-for-trade weighing.
