Dillon Model X Force Gauges are compact dynamometers designed to measure tension or compression forces. There are three versions of the Model X force gauge: Model X-C measures compression; Model X-ST measures tension; Model X-PP is the pull-pull version which measures both. These gauges are available in capacities of 25 lbs. to 50,000 lbs. Equivalent metric capacities are also available.
Model U is a slimline version designed for compression measurement in limited space. It may be hand-held or permanently mounted on a surface plate or in test fixtures. It is available in 15 capacities from 25 lbs. to 10,000 lbs., also in 12 kg capacities.
