This sequence covers general-purpose surface preparation for strain gage installations. Properly prepared surfaces help ensure the strong, stable bonds required for transmission of surface strains to the gage. 
The bonding surface must be chemically clean and free of paint, weldments, spalling and other defects or contaminants. |
|
In addition to the proper installation accessories , five basic operations are required: 
Degreasing
Abrading
Burnishing of Layout Lines
Conditioning
Neutralizing
The steps used in surface preparation are outlined in Vishay Measurements Group Instruction Bulletin B-129, Surface Preparation for Strain Gage Bonding . |
