Load Washer Load Cell LTH500

The Load Washer Load Cell LTH500 is engineered for inline compressive force measurement while allowing a structural element—such as a bolt, rod or shaft—to pass through its centre. With robust stainless steel construction, excellent tolerance for overload, and multiple inner diameter options, the LTH500 is designed for demanding industrial, test, and OEM applications where a clean through-hole sensor is required

Key Features & Benefits of the Load Washer Load Cell LTH500

  • True Through-Hole / Donut Design — allows your load path (fasteners, shafts, rods) to run through the center of the sensor without the need for offset mounting.

  • High Capacity Capability — built to handle heavy loads typical in structural, press, or clamp systems.

  • Precise Measurement — designed for low nonlinearity, hysteresis, and repeatability to deliver dependable results in real world conditions.

  • Strong Construction — made from 17-4 PH stainless steel with solid mechanical design to resist fatigue, off-axis loads, and environmental stress.

  • Overload Safety — designed to tolerate transient loads above its rated capacity to protect the sensor from damage.

  • Multiple Inner Diameter (I.D.) Options — to suit various bolt/shaft sizes without compromising sensor performance or mechanical design flexibility.

  • Environmental Durability — sealed internals and connector or cable variants designed for industrial duty conditions.

  • Low Profile & Compact Geometry — integration into assemblies where extra height or bulky packaging is undesirable.


Typical Applications of the Load Washer Load Cell LTH500

  • Bolt preload / clamping force measurement

  • Inline compression sensing in presses, clamps, or machinery

  • Structural test rigs where load must pass through the sensor ring

  • OEM systems requiring measurement across a bolt or shaft

  • Load monitoring in industrial automation, fixture systems, or safety test setups


Why Choose the Load Washer Load Cell LTH500

  • Integrated Through-Hole Sensing — no need for mechanical redirection of the load path, simplifying system design.

  • Robust & Accurate — built with industrial materials and design for dependable performance.

  • Flexible Sizing Options — multiple inner diameters and capacities to suit your mechanical and load needs.

  • Durable Under Stress — capable of withstanding overload conditions and real-world environmental stress.

  • Support & Calibration — Metromatics can assist with calibration, matching, mounting guidance, and specification selection.

Ordering & Configuration Advice

If you would like to learn more about this product, or would like to place an order, please contact us.

When selecting an LTH500, you should:

  1. Choose the inner diameter (I.D.) that your bolt or shaft requires, so it fits the sensor’s bore seamlessly.

  2. Pick a capacity rating that comfortably exceeds your maximum expected load.

  3. Decide between connectorized or cable variants based on your system design and maintenance approach.

  4. Request calibration / certification if you need traceable performance or matched pairs.

  5. Ensure alignment, mounting, and mounting clearance are proper to prevent side load or bending moments on the sensor.
