The First Choice for Strain Measurement

We offer the full range of strain gauges for all applications.

Specializing in the following:

- Experimental stress analysis (ESA)

- Strain measurement for Finite Element Analysis (FEA) verification & validation

- Strain gauges for normal component testing and transducer manufacturing.

 

As experts in the field, TANDM can also provide you with the necessary guidance, training, and services for all your strain gauge requirements.

Our strain gauge course is now a certified level 1 and 2 courses with The Association of German Engineers VDI/VDE/GESA guideline 2636. Contact us if you are interested in getting ceritified.

Types of Strain Gauges

How to solder strain gauges correctly
 
Y Series

Precise, robust and flexible strain gauges that can be used on many different materials.

More
 

Y Series

The Y series has over 2000 strain gauges to choose from. These foil strain gauges can be used in static or dynamic stress analysis. These strain gauges are precise, robust and flexible. They offer 7 different types of temperature response matching and can be used on many different materials.  These strain gauges are available in many versions for a wide range of applicationsue to properties such as:

  • geometry
  • nominal (rated) resistance
  • measuring grid length that can be combined as required
 
C Series

Ideal for structural tests and offers good mechanical flexibility

More
 

The C series

Strain gauges of the C Series have an extremely wide temperature range at a very good price-performance ratio. The strain gauges of the C Series are available with three different geometries and are used, for example, in research and development, in the automotive industry, as well as in power plants and superconductors.

  • Temperature range: -269 to +250 ° C
  • Resistance: 120 and 350 Ohm
  • Measuring grid lengths: 1.5 to 10 mm

 

 
M Series

For stress analysis of materials with high fatigue strength such as fiber composites

More
 

The M series

M series strain gauges are foil strain gauges for stress analysis of materials with high fatigue strength such as fiber composites. They can also be used in product development, for example in the aerospace or sporting goods industries. 

In addition, M series strain gauges offer a very large temperature range. Due to their excellent fatigue life, M series strain gauges enable measurements to be repeated extremely frequently, also in case of high strain. Properties such as different geometries, resistance values, and measuring grid lengths can be combined to configure the ideal strain gauge—over 36 preferential strain gauges are available for immediate delivery.

  • Temperature range: -200 to +300 °C
  • Load cycles: Up to 10 million at +/- 2000 µm/m fatigue loading
  • Measuring grid lengths: 1.5 to 6 millimeters
 
Transducer Strain Gauges

Different creep compensation values and a great price to performance ratio

More
 

Transducer Strain Gauges

Strain Gauges for Transducer Manufacturers Offer Both Cost Advantage and Optimal Performance

These custom strain gauges are specifically designed for transducer manufacturing. They are available in different creep compensation values and offer a great combination of performance and cost advantages.
