Choose a force gauge for the measurement task
Start by identifying whether the work requires tension, compression, or both, then compare the needed capacity, reading and recording features, display format, accessories, and data connections. The available products range from compact handheld force gauges to models with data logging, PC interfaces, programmable pass/fail limits, and mounting capability for compatible test stands.

Digital Force Gauge with Tension HookWBB1642265Measure push, pull, tension, and compression
Force gauges support inspection, testing, quality, production, maintenance, and product-evaluation work. Select tension-capable models for pulling applications, compression-capable models for pushing applications, or gauges that support both measurement directions.
Match capacity and test method
Compare the force range with the expected load, from 20 lbF and 20 kg options through 100 kg, 200 lbf, and 220 lb models. Also consider peak hold, normal measurement mode, sampling rate, display visibility, included adapters, and whether handheld or compatible test-stand use fits the task.
Support inspection beyond force checks
For rotating equipment, tachometers measure RPM and, on select models, surface speed or revolution counts. Vibration meters measure velocity and acceleration to support machinery condition checks and preventive maintenance.
Plan for records and result review
Choose USB, RS-232, Digimatic, analog, or SD-card logging when results need to be collected or reviewed. Some models provide configurable or programmable pass/fail set points, while data-logging gauges can create Excel files without software.
Available on a digital gauge for tension and compression testing.
Available for tension and compression force measurements.
Available for capturing force data during quick-action tests.
Available memory for review and statistical calculations on one advanced model.
Compare the available force gauge types
Use this overview to narrow options by capacity, recording needs, and setup features.
| Force gauge type | Measurement and capacity | Notable features |
|---|---|---|
| Digital force gauge | Tension or compression, depending on model; available capacities include 20 lbF and 200 lbf | Backlit graphic displays, peak values, load bars, pass/fail set points, and USB output are available on select models. |
| Data-logging force gauge | Push/pull, tension, and compression; available in 20 kg and 100 kg capacities | SD-card recording, selectable logging intervals on the 100 kg model, Excel file generation without software, peak hold, and reversible backlit displays. |
| High-capacity force gauge | Tension and compression up to 100 kg, 220 lb, or 980 N | Peak hold, zero function, backlit LCD, RS-232 interface, included adapters and case, and a documented NIST certificate. |
Plan the right fit before choosing
Select the range that fits the force being measured
Available force gauges cover routine and higher-force testing. Confirm that the gauge supports the direction of force required for the application and that its capacity fits the expected test load.
- A 20 lbF digital force gauge supports routine tension and compression checks.
- 20 kg and 100 kg data-logging gauges measure push and pull force for tension and compression work.
- A high-capacity model measures up to 100 kg, 220 lb, or 980 N.
- An advanced digital model measures tension and compression force up to 200 lbf.
Choose the features needed during and after testing
Digital displays, peak functions, sampling speed, memory, and output options affect how a team captures and evaluates force readings. Consider whether the work calls for a single visible reading, a retained peak value, logged records, or connected data collection.
- Peak hold is available on several force gauges for retaining maximum force values.
- Sampling rates of 2,000 Hz and 7,000 Hz are available for quick-action tests.
- One advanced gauge stores 1,000 readings for review and statistical calculations.
- Data-logging gauges record to an SD card and create Excel files without software.
Consider handling, mounting, and contact attachments
Handheld gauges provide portable measurement, while one reversible-housing model can also mount to a compatible test stand. Included accessories vary by model and can support different contact, tension, and compression setups.
- Available attachments include chisel, cone, V-groove, hook, flat, and extension rod accessories.
- Some gauges include tension and compression adapters plus a storage case.
- Backlit and reversible displays help keep readings visible in different working orientations.
- A tension-hook model includes common contact and tension accessories for transport between work areas.
Common questions before buying
What is the difference between tension and compression measurement?
Tension measures pulling force, while compression measures pushing force. Several gauges in this category support both directions.
Which force gauges can record measurements?
The 20 kg and 100 kg data-logging force gauges record measurements to an SD card. The advanced digital gauge stores up to 1,000 readings, and select models provide USB or RS-232 data connections.
Are accessories included with force gauges?
Some models include adapters such as hooks, flat, cone, chisel, V-groove, and extension rod attachments. Included accessories vary by model.
What capacity should I choose?
Choose a capacity that fits the expected test force. Available examples include 20 lbF, 20 kg, 100 kg or 220 lb, and 200 lbf models.
