The Model 5113 load pin is designed to provide force measurement on an applied load across it. It uses VPG’s own internally manufactured state-of-the-art foil-based strain gages, bonded onto a robust zinc-plated, hardened alloy steel body, making it an ideal sensor for any harsh environment application. This compact, rugged 38 mm load pin is available in three capacities up to 60 kN and with a safe overload capability of up to 250 kN delivers excellent long term stability and reliable operation, even under severe load conditions. These features make the Model 5113 to perform repeatable measurements in any given control or safety system. The Model 5113 load pin is an ideal partner for a wide variety of applications, such as those found in tractor hitch systems, plowing vehicles, cranes or tensioning systems that employ rope, chain or brake anchors. This load pin may be used in lieu of hydraulic pressure or draft pin sensors.
