    Load Pin - Custom Design
    Model: T-LP

    Load Pins

    The T-LP provides a simple measuring device for tension measurement.

    All units are designed around the customer requirements.

    PCM request the attached questionnaire to be completed and sent to our design team.

    Once received PCM will confirm if the criteria is mechanically achievable and safe.

    A quotation will be supplied stating a competitive lead time.

    On receipt of a purchase order, an outline drawing and specification will be supplied for the customer for authorisation.

    Once received, PCM will commence manufacture.

    This process is done for all load pins.

    The units are supplied with calibration certificates using a BS EN ISO 7500-1 test machine traceable to National Standards.

    We recommend an in-situ calibration to obtain maximum performance.
