3 Ranges up to 1000lbs
Measures Push / Pull Force

The microprocessor-controlled, digital FGE-HX and FGV-HX offer the same user-friendly features of our popular FGE/FGV series, but in an extremely heavy-duty case, allowing the gauges to handle larger capacities from 0 to 1000 pounds.

Two knurled steel handles are provided for hand operation and a hanger is included which enables each gauge to be used as a scale.

  • Accuracy ±0.2%
  • Measures both compression and tension forces
  • Overload Protection 150% of full scale
  • Heavy-duty load sensor
  • Removable hanger
  • User-selected units of Pounds, Kilograms or Newtons
  • Display can be reversed for inverted use
  • Display "real-time" or "peak" force
  • Includes Traceable Calibration Certificate
  • 1 Year Warranty
