Product Description

TC-DFS3 Chatillon DFE3 force gauge load cell overview

The TC-DFS3 Series are complete replacement load cell kits for the Chatillon DFE3 handheld digital force gauge. When a Chatillon DFE3 gauge sustains an overload or the internal sensing element degrades over time, the TC-DFS3 kit restores the gauge to full working condition without the cost of a complete gauge replacement. Each kit includes the replacement load cell, the loading shaft, mounting screws, and mounting pins — everything required to complete the repair. Available in capacities from ±2 lbf to ±500 lbf, with shaft thread sizes of #10-32 on smaller models and 5/16-18 on 200 lbf and 500 lbf models. The ±2 lbf model uses an aluminum loading shaft; all other models use steel.
