The LCRD is a miniature threaded in line load cell designed for precise tension and compression measurement in compact assemblies. With a diameter of only 20.3 mm and an installed height of just 5 mm, this small force sensor offers an ultra-low-profile solution for applications where space is limited. The sensor features 3/8-24 UNF-2A x 0.4 male threads, allowing easy integration into inline force measurement systems with minimal impact on the assembly's overall height or diameter. Constructed from durable stainless steel, the LCRD provides reliable performance in demanding environments and is available in rated capacities of 500 lb and 1000 lb. Its compact threaded design also makes it a practical lightweight rod end load cell option for systems requiring precise force feedback while maintaining a small footprint.

The column-type sensing structure provides excellent stiffness and stability, resulting in a high natural frequency and a very low rated deformation of 0.05 mm. These characteristics make the LCRD suitable for both static and dynamic force measurement in tension and compression directions. In addition, it can serve as a cost-effective alternative to the Futek LCM200 load cell in many inline force measurement applications. For projects with special structural, dimensional, or force-range requirements, LCS TECH can collaborate with customers to develop fully customized solutions, ensuring the miniature threaded in line load cell meets specific integration and performance needs.
