Strain Gauges for Stress Analysis
XY T Rosettes with 2 Measuring Grids
XY T Rosettes with 2 Measuring Grids for Analyzing Biaxial Stress States with Known Principal Directions
XY strain gauges of the T rosettes type have 2 measuring grids arranged at a 90° degree offset from each other. Typical applications for these strain gauges include analysis of a biaxial stress state with known principal directions as well as measurements on tension and compression bars.
With types XY1, XY3, XY7, XY9, XY10 we offer you strain gauges (SG) in various geometries and sizes, each 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
- Austenitic steel (16 ppm/K, 8.9 ppm/°F); temperature matching codes: 5
- Silica/composite (0,5 ppm/K; 0.3 ppm/°F); temperature matching codes: 6
- Titanium and gray cast iron (9 ppm/K; 5.0 ppm/°F); temperature matching codes: 7
- Plastic (65 ppm/K; 36.1 ppm/°F); temperature matching codes: 8
- Molybdenum (5.4 ppm/K; 3.0 ppm/°F); temperature matching codes: 9
Insert the temperature matching code in place of the placeholder “x” to get the ordering number of the strain gage you need. Strain gauges with # characterized are only available in matches for aluminum, ferritic and austenitic steel
