Low-cost Analogue

Mechanical force gauges provide a basic and low-cost alternative to digital gauges for simple force measurement applications.

Tension, or compression, is indicated by a needle on a dial with a peak-hold function to lock the needle in place for taking maximum load readings.

All models are supplied in a portable carry case with a full set of accessories that includes:

  • chisel point
  • compression plate
  • cone point
  • extension rod
  • inverse chisel point
  • test hook

Each gauge comes with its own traceable calibration certificate.

Affordable and easy-to-use, mechanical gram gauges offer a quick and easy solution for measuring very low forces between 1 and 1000 grams-force.

Each gram gauge has a needle with slave pointer for simple peak-hold function, making them suitable for very basic tension and compression tests.

The DGD range of gram gauges features seven models, covering forces from 5 gf up to 1000 gf.
