C Series Strain Gauges: Temperature range up to -269 ° C
The C Series strain gauges are the ideal choice for structural tests at exceptional temperature conditions. They have an enormous temperature range and measure precisely even at very low temperatures down to -269 ° C. For a good mechanical flexibility, as well as flexibility and optimum adaptation to the material to be measured, the measuring grid of the C Series consists of a chrome-nickel special alloy on a polyimide foil.
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
We offer you strain gauges (SGs) in various geometries and sizes, available with temperature responses adapted to the following materials:
- Ferritic steel (10.8 ppm/K; 6.0 ppm/°F); temperature matching codes: 1
- Aluminum (23 ppm/K; 12.8 ppm/°F); temperature matching codes: 3
Insert the temperature matching code in place of the placeholder “x” to get the ordering number of the strain gage you need.


Measuring grid consists of chrome-nickel special alloy, measuring grid carrier is polymide
