KERN Mechanical force gauge FA 500

KERN Mechanical Force Gauge FA 500

The KERN FA 500 is a high-performance mechanical force gauge engineered for precise measurement of tensile and compressive forces up to 500 N. With a robust plastic housing and compact structure, it is ideal for both mobile and fixed testing setups. The dual-scale display enables readings in Newton and kilograms, while the drag pointer feature allows easy capture of peak force values.
