WT12 Series dynamometers from Chatillon are a cheaper alternative to digital crane scales.  Electronic crane scales that offering similar weighing capacities can cost over $2000.  WT12 dynamometers provide a money saving alternative, utilizing a mechanical dial rather than digital technology.

CHATILLON® WT12 Series mechanical dynamometer may be used as a weighing tensiometer or crane scale.  This precision weighing instrument features a large 12-inch (305 mm) dial face with shatter-resistant dial cover in a strong aluminum housing.  WT12-10000 dynamometers feature dial face showing units in pounds only, offering 10000 pound maximum weighing capacity by 50 pound increments.  A manually engaged clutch freezes the pointer at is maximum reading for exact reading of peak weight.

Needle bearings in shackles prevent brinneling under heavy loads and eliminate shackle misalignment.  Mechanism sealed against dust and dirt.  Oiling not required.  Dynamometer comes with NIST traceable Certificate of Calibration with Data.
