Remarks
*Strain limit of 20% to 30% is ensured for simple tension applied to the gage bonded on stainless steel SUS 304 or aluminum alloy A1050 at normal temperature.
*Strain limit will be decreased under the following conditions.
- In case of bonding to non-adhesive materials such as aluminum alloy A7075 and plastics Polypropylene.
- In case of the targets have discontinuous distortion, or any crack on its surface.
- In case of measurement at high/low temperature.

How to order
When ordering, suffix the lead-wire cable code to the model number with a space in between.
E.g.
KFEM-5-120-C1 with a vinyl-coated flat 2-wire cable 10 m long pre-attached
→ KFEM-5-120-C1 L10M2R
If no lead-wire cable code is suffixed, the gage is delivered with gage leads only.
(Silver-covered copper wires 25 mm long)
