In order to facilitate the exact positioning of the extensometer on the specimen and to optimize test procedures, MAYTEC has developed a suspension which always positions your feeler rods on the same test point after swivelling. The sophisticated technology with 2 mechanical locks, allows "one-handed" operation and incorrect operation is almost impossible. After the extensometer is in the test position, a mechanism is triggered via a Bowden cable, which blocks the arm from swinging out and thus offers maximum test reliability. The extensometer is also locked in the parking position to ensure that the device does not slip when changing rods etc. A sheet metal bracket protects the ceramic feeler rods from damage in the park position. We adapt the heavy-duty suspension to the flange situation of your testing machine individually. 

- Leg lengths of the aluminium profiles used are adapted to your testing machine dimensions

- Two locking functions in the “park” and in the “measuring” position

- Easily height-adjustable via linear drive and hand crank

- Heavy-duty design to increase measurement reliability

- With an additional column, it can also be attached to machines without freely accessible machine columns

- On request also for non-MAYTEC extensometers
