Torsion and tension strips are used when the friction torque in point or pivot bearing measuring instruments is too high.

The use of our torsion strips eliminates any bearing friction, producing a considerable increase in sensitivity and reliability of adjustment.

Tension strips have three functions:

  • Bearing the mobile system
  • Power supply
  • Self-aligning torque

Our tension strips are tailored to the needs of our customers, from a torque of 0.00624 dyncm/rad up to 624 dyncm/rad.
