FTS-MG Force Test System
Product Information 
FTS-MG Force Test System
Application:
The FTS-MG is a complete Force Test System designed for compression and tensile testing of small samples. It precisely measures push pull forces as low as 0.002 lb with an accuracy of ± 0.5% full scale ±1 digit. The precision hand wheel allows fine control with greater consistency in testing results. An optional dial indicator kit displays up to 1" of displacement.
Features:
- Mounting holes for bench mounting
- Optional 1" [25.4mm] dial indicator travel kit
- Display "real-time" or "peak" force
- Push-button calibration
- Battery life: 30 hours of continuous operation
- Battery or AC operation
- Large baseplate with 5 #10-32 UNF holes for fixture mounting
- User-selected units of Pounds, Kilograms or Newtons
- Includes NIST-Traceable calibration certificate
- 3 Year Warranty
