| Extreme-Duty Floor Scales use the
patented Weigh Bar which is 3X stronger and lasts
10X to 15X longer than load cells. They have more
steel content in the scale platform (roughly double
the steel content) than Heavy-Duty Floor Scales.
They use a chain link suspension to transfer the
load from the scale platform to the Weigh Bars. This
suspension absorbs much of the shock loading that
occurs in heavy industry and it eliminates the
problem of bent leveling feet that occurs when
scales are hit from the side. This scale was the
first Floor Scale to be approved by the National
Bureau of Standards (now the National Institute for
Standards and Technology or NIST) as
Legal-for-Trade. That happened in 1973 and this
Extreme-Duty Floor Scale has been the standard for
heavy industry ever since. We have scales that have
been in service for over 30 years with minimal or no
maintenance. We have these available in painted mild
steel, USDA Epoxy, and Stainless Steel. Many
accessories are available to fit your needs. These
include ramps, bumper guards, pit frames, indicator
stands, and portability frames. The scales we sell
and service are from quality conscious, ISO
accredited, manufacturers. The following is representative of what we offer. It is not exclusive. Please contact us with your requirements. |
