The MC36 is a six-axis transducer with threaded inserts in its top surface and a flanged base for t-slot mounting. A high-strength aluminum alloy (7075-T6) is used throughout to withstand harsh manufacturing and testing environments, and a steel base is available for use with magnetic chucks. A durable anodized finish protects the exterior from corrosion while elastomeric 0-ring seals protect the strain gages and wiring. Internal potting of the strain gages further insures long life and consistent, reliable performance.
