Product catalog summary
Product Introduction
The foil high-temperature strain gage is designed for use in high-stress environments such as aviation, aerospace, and energy sectors. It is particularly effective in high-temperature conditions, providing reliable data for stress and strain measurements. The TG series, made from iron-chromium alloy foil, can withstand temperatures up to 800°C and requires special installation techniques using high-temperature ceramic glue.

Specifications
The TG series strain gage features a sensitive grid formed through chemical etching. It does not have temperature self-compensation, necessitating the installation of a nearby strain gage for accurate measurements. The product's structure can be customized for uniaxial or biaxial configurations, and it uses a glass fiber reinforced Teflon carrier.

Gage Bonding Method
The bonding process involves several steps: polishing and cleaning the surface, applying a base glue, bonding the gage, removing the fixed frame, coating the cover, and final curing. Each step requires precise temperature control and timing to ensure proper adhesion and functionality.

Precautions
Users should handle ceramic glue with care due to its lead content and avoid applying it too thickly to prevent cracking. When removing the Teflon frame, it is important to do so slowly to avoid damaging the sensitive grid.

Product Models and Characteristics
The document lists various models of the TG series, detailing their resistance deviation, sensitive grid dimensions, and total size. Customization options are available to meet specific customer requirements.

Thermal Output and Sensitivity
The document includes a typical thermal output curve and sensitivity coefficient with temperature curve, indicating the performance of the strain gage under different temperature conditions. The sample material used for testing is GH3128 high-temperature alloy.

Foil High Temperature Strain Gage-1

Foil High Temperature Strain Gage Product application High temperature strain gage is mainly used for aviation, aerospace, atomic energy, engine, energy power generation, iron and steel smelting, chemical and other areas of stress and strain testing, health monitoring, strength measurement, etc. It has a very good adaptive capability in high temperature (including transient temperature) stress measurement. It is a good weapon to ensure the safety of components, study of the failure mode. It’s also a reliable sensitive component to obtain high temperature stress and strain measurement data. Using foil manufacturing process, it has good flexibility, can meet various requirements of customers. Product Introduction TG series high-temperature strain gage is the iron-chromium alloy foil, through chemical etching to form a sensitive grid, can be used for high temperature structure and strain test within 800 ℃ . Using our company produced special high-temperature ceramic glue or flame spray to install. TG series strain gage is not able to achieve temperature self-compensation function. During the test process, need to install a strain gage on nearby arm, with the same temperature degree on measuring arm, to improve test accuracy. TG series strain gage provide a moving high temperature carrier, to fix the sensitive grid during strain gage’s installation.
