Three long, closely-spaced slender shafts with precision guide rollers or pins at their ends combine with the latest in microprocessor technology to make this instrument top choice for all limited-access, tension measuring applications.
ETMB models feature miniature, high speed rollers for filament speeds up to 2000 m/min. ETMPB models features non-rotating, ceramic pins for speeds to 6000 m/min.
Reversible display for right or left-hand operation
- User Selectable Units Grams or Centinewtons
- New filament guide for easy acquisition of material
- Adjustable damping for easier readings when tension fluctuates
- Backlit LCD Display
- Stores AVG, MIN, MAX and PEAK tension values which can be recalled in the display
- Powered by rechargeable Lithium Polymer battery, 60 hr battery life w/ Universal voltage AC-Charger supplied
- Continuous, automatic Zero Setting (independent to measuring position)
- Chrome-plated steel ball-bearing mounted rollers for material speeds up to 2000 m/min
- Non-rotating Ceramic Thread Guides suggested for material speeds over 2000 meters/min
