The internally gaged Load Pin (invented by Strainsert, U.S. Patent No. 3,695,096) is designed to measure forces transmitted/supported through pin joints. Load pins allow direct, accurate, and repeatable measurements with pins from 1/4” diameter to over 10” diameter, in almost every type of pin joint. Although Strainsert offers designs which exists for common applications, it is not always possible or economical for a customer to modify existing equipment or load arrangement. Therefore, Strainsert also designs and manufactures many custom pins tailored for unique applications and installations. Strainsert’s designs combine decades of design experience along with an automated manufacturing process to provide reliable, cost effective and fully configured transducer systems. Furthermore, Strainsert can offer tremendous design flexibility to accommodate both low/high measurement load for a given pin diameter, custom loading geometries, different materials, high factors of safety, special finishes, fatigue designs, high pressure applications or other special requirements.

The Strainsert approach to custom designs starts with a one-on-one dialogue between our designers and the customer to ensure that the optimal design is achieved. Strainsert quickly and efficiently develops a customer drawing which is provided to the customer for approval prior to manufacturing. This approach provides the customer with added assurance that the load pin is designed to specification.

Strainsert’s confidence in custom load pin designs is reflected in our ability to provide a two year warranty as well as providing technical support as required.
