Limited Access Digital Tension Meter
4 Ranges up to 2000 g
For measurement in areas with limited space or tightly grouped filaments
The DTFB Limited Access Digital Tension meter accurately measure the running line tensions of yarns, fibers, wires, cables and similar process materials. Long, flat fingers and miniature V-grooved rollers permit measurement in areas with limited space or tightly grouped filaments.
