Digital Strap Tension Meters are used to measure tension(s) on metal, plastic or other strapping. The Model STX series offers users utmost accuracy over a wide variety of materials.

STANDARD INSTRUMENTS:

Model	Range	Resolution	Full-Scale Accuracy
STX-250	5-250 lbs	0.5 lb	1%
STX-500	25-500 lbs	1 lb	1%
STX-1000	50-1000 lbs	5 lb	1%
STX-2000	100-2000 lbs	10 lb	2%
STXM-2000*	100-2000 lbs	10 lb	4%

*The STXM-2000 includes all calibrations for POLY and PET strapping with thicknesses from .020" - .055", and STEEL strapping with thicknesses between .017" - .044".

All other STX-Series Models are calibrated specifically to your strapping types(s) and size(s) for greatest accuracy.

 

Display shows tension, name of calibration selected, running line minimum and maximum tension values, and battery charge level.

 

Data Logging has adjustable duration and sampling rates.

Large, easy to read backlit, graphic display with adjustable backlighting and contrast.

Select tension values to display in lbs, Kg, or Newtons.

Select strap material and size from menu. Instrument automatically adjusts calibration for your specific setting.

Up to 10 calibrations can be programmed into instrument. (All calibrations password protected.)

Adjustable LCD refresh rates allow for stable digital readings.

All models typically available from stock.

All models factory-calibrated and ready for use.
