* Are you stress testing, breaking lines or cables and still need to show the last registered weight on the indicator?
> Please see our hanging crane scales from 250lb to 20,000lb maximum capacity.  We simply upgrade the digital indicator and set the software for "peak hold", calibrate the unit and ship it direct to you.  You can then pull a line, cable, cord, etc. until it breaks and read the last registered weight. Prices start at $695. Call in your order to One Digital Scales.


Since 1937, Dillon Dynamometers have been chosen for the jobs where only the best will do. Feature for feature - Dillon Dynamometer sets the standard!

Originally designed to measure the tension on telephone wires, the Dynamometer has proven to have limitless versatility as a tension and weight measuring instrument. It is used for such diverse jobs as suspended weighing: mounting cables for bridges adjusting tension on guy wires field testing chain, rope, wire - anything requiring precision force or tension measurement.

Dillon is the leader in Dynamometers with the largest installed population throughout the world. The sturdy design, top grade components and premium coatings make it last for years in severe environments and applications: the pounding aboard military vehicles, rough handling in field measurements and even use underwater. (Dillon recommends short intervals in clean water followed with rinse and drain.) Embraced by industrial contractors across the globe, we are confident the AP will satisfy your most demanding applications.
