N2A-Series Gages

Description and Primary Application

Open-faced constantan foil gages with a thin, laminated, polyimide-film backing. Primarily recommended for use in precision transducers, the N2A Series is characterized by low and repeatable creep performance. Also recommended for stress analysis applications employing large gage patterns, where the especially flat matrix eases gage installation.
