Pocket Tension Meter for Circular Knitting Applications with Speed and Length Meter
Measuring Range: 0.5 - 100.0 grams or cN
The PT-100 digital tension meter is designed for measurement of low tensions of fibers, yarns. etc. typically found on circular knitting machines etc.
It is battery-powered and pocket-sized for convenient storage and features and extremely small measuring head for applications with limited access space
It uses a unique 180 degree material wrap to provide for accurate readings while the machine is in operation. Easy Slide-In material threading by cone shaped guide roler and turning the instrument 180 degrees. | Kit Contents
