DXL Tension meter with large rollers for minimized material deflection

For fiber optic cables and buffer tubes up to 8mm max

Special purpose model feature large rollers to minimize bending of materials like optics, carbon and technical fibers.

Fragile filaments such as fiber optics and other technical fibers may require large roller diameters and a wide roller spacing.

Note: This model does not include a material thickness compensator

Other tension ranges available on request. Other units of measure available, such as g and kg. * Outer distance between outside guide rollers ** Suitable for 95% of applications - PA = Polyamide Monofilament Special calibration using customer supplied samples is recommended, if process material differs significantly from the SCHMIDT calibration material in diameter, rigidity or shape. For this purpose a material sample of about 5 m should be supplied.
