Dual-grid shear strain gauge XY series

XY Torsion/Shear Strain Gauges with 2 Measuring Grids for Measurements on Torsion Bars and Determining Shear Stresses Types XY1, XY2 and XY4 are V-shaped strain gauges (SGs) with 2 measuring grids arranged at an angle of about 45° to the SG axis. Typical applications for these strain gauges include measurements on torsion bars and determining shear stresses as they occur in shear beams in the area of neutral fibers. With types XY1, XY2 and XY4 we offer you strain gauges (SG) in various geometries and sizes, each available with temperature responses adapted to the following materials: Ferritic steel (10.8 ppm/K; 6.0 ppm/°F); temperature matching code: 1 Aluminum (23 ppm/K; 12.8 ppm/°F); temperature matching code: 3 Austenitic steel (16 ppm/K, 8.9 ppm/°F); temperature matching code: 5 Silica/composite (0,5 ppm/K; 0.3 ppm/°F); temperature matching code: 6 Titanium and gray cast iron (9 ppm/K; 5.0 ppm/°F); temperature matching code: 7 Plastic (65 ppm/K; 36.1 ppm/°F); temperature matching code: 8 Molybdenum (5.4 ppm/K; 3.0 ppm/°F - not available for XY1); temperature matching code: 9 Insert the temperature matching code in place of the placeholder “x” to get the ordering number of the strain gauge you need. Strain gauges marked with a # symbol are only available matched to aluminum, ferritic and austenitic steel
