Micro-Measurements, a Vishay Precision Group Inc. (VPG) brand, announces the release of three CEA-Series strain gages designed to perform standard compression tests on polymer matrix composite materials.
- Features unique configuration suited for any strain measurement requiring close proximity to one-sided features, such as weld joints, structural discontinuities, or stress risers like holes and cracks
- Pattern geometry meets needs of ASTM Standard Test Method D6641
- 062UB, 125UB and 250UB patterns are designed with both solder tabs placed on one side of linear sensing grid
- Enables proper orientation on composite specimen and keeps sensing grid centered in test zone
- Available in 350 ohm to minimize self-heating
- UB pattern features thin, flexible, cast polyimide carrier backing and encapsulation
- Rugged copper-coated solder tabs enable quick and simple soldering
- Available with optional pre-attached lead wires, eliminating chance of heat damage to test specimen during soldering
