Model SF-SB51T Self Aligning Foot for Models SB41T & SB51T

Whenever several load cells are built into a scale or platform, some flexibility must be introduced into the mechanical design to allow for expansion (due to temperature) and the bending and twisting of the frames under load. If not, forces will be created between the individual load cells which could cause significant measurement errors.Typically, to overcome this, expensive ball & cup mechanism or lever/knife edges have traditionally been used.
