DSF series High Endurance Strain Gauge

This strain gauge is designed for fatigue test in high stress level. The gauge satisfies the fatigue life over 10 million times at a strain level of ±3000×10^-6 strain. It is remarkably durable compared to conventional strain gauges (1 million times at ±1500×10^-6 strain).
In aerospace field, cyclic loading tests of composite materials are often made under large strain. There, strain gauges must be frequently replaced with new ones depending on the fatigue life of the strain gauges.

Applicable specimen	Metal, Composite materials	Backing	Polyimide
Operational temperature(°C)	-60~+200°C	Element	Special alloy
Temperature compensation range(°C)	—	Strain limit	—
Bonding adhesive	CN, EB-2, C-1	Fatigue life at room temperature	1×107 (±3000×10-6strain)

* Because this strain gauge is not self-temperature-compensated, it is recommended to preliminarily measure thermal output of this strain gauge using a dummy specimen which is made of the same material as the test specimen.
