FTS-MG Force Test System

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.
