Strain Gauge Kit
Product Code : LSK-MTE-10515
Strain Gauge Kit (SKU LSK-MTE-10515) is a general-purpose kit of resistance strain gauges and the accessories needed to bond and wire them, packed in a PVC carrying case. It helps lecturers demonstrate gauge technique, lets students build their own instrumented rigs, and gives engineers a ready set for strain analysis away from the lab. Engineering colleges, training institutes, tender contractors and distributors can obtain the kit through Science Lab Supplies, which dispatches it from Ambala, India.
Specifications
The Strain Gauge Kit's contents are itemised in the table below. In short, it pairs a selection of resistance strain gauges with a single-agent, pressure-sensitive cyanoacrylate adhesive, so the whole job from choosing the gauge position to taking readings can be done in a few minutes, and adds cleaning agents, terminal strips and sundries.

Applications and Experiments for the Strain Gauge Kit
With the kit, gauges can be fixed to beams, brackets, shafts or project models so their strain can be read on a bridge indicator. It suits experimental stress analysis and strength of materials work in B.Tech/B.E. and diploma programmes, staff demonstrations and occasional field measurements by non-specialists.
- Teaching surface preparation, bonding and wiring of resistance gauges.
- Instrumenting a student-built beam or frame for a final-year project, after measuring its section with a Vernier Caliper or Micrometer.
- Quick strain checks on a component outside the laboratory.
- Constructing demonstration apparatus for lectures.
Cyanoacrylate bonds skin within seconds and cleaning agents may be flammable or irritant, so use them in a ventilated room, keep them from eyes and skin, and let students handle them only under supervision. Shelf life depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions; ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted.
Standard Scope of Supply
One PVC carrying case containing a selection of resistance strain gauges, cyanoacrylate adhesive, cleaning agents, terminal strips, tissues and pressure-sensitive tape. A strain indicator to read the bonded gauges, or a structure to load, can be added to the same quotation.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
You may request a quotation for a single kit or for one per lab bench. It will show the packing, delivery time and price for that quantity, and test and measurement instruments in India from the same range can be listed on it too.
With its Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Iraq, Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana, Ethiopia and Tanzania. To price kits for each bench, reach the team through the contact page, compile your list in the enquiry cart, or follow the lab tender page for a tender submission.
Frequently Asked Questions
Who is the Strain Gauge Kit meant for?
It suits non-specialists who apply gauges occasionally, specialists who must analyse strain outside the lab at short notice, and teaching staff who demonstrate the technique or build experimental apparatus.
How long does it take to fit a gauge?
Because the adhesive is a single-agent, pressure-sensitive cyanoacrylate, the complete job from choosing the gauge position to taking strain readings can be finished in a few minutes.
Who supplies the Strain Gauge Kit?
The kit is a supplied item from Science Lab Supplies in Ambala, India. It can be quoted on its own or together with strain displays and loading rigs, with packing and delivery stated for your quantity.
Which gauge types and resistances are in the kit?
The kit contains a selection of resistance strain gauges. For the exact gauge types in the current kit, ask through the contact page before ordering.
Related Strain Measurement and Beam Apparatus
Bonded gauges need an indicator to read them and a structure to load, and a trainer helps students learn the method first. These items fill those roles, and a multimeter helps check resistance and continuity while wiring, and all can join the kit on one quotation for engineering lab equipment in India.
