The tensile range of load cells can generally be divided into two main types - flat plate and tensile columns. All tensile links are manufactured from high-grade stainless steel, cover a range from 4te. to 60 te. and can be considered an effective alternative to the load shackle. The tensile link columns have threaded ends suitable for swivel bearings, and are manufactured from high strength aluminum for low capacities and stainless steel for higher capacities
