High Capacity Load Cells
from 25,000 to 1 million pounds & higher
High capacity load cells are used for pile testing, concrete batch plants, mooring testing, and laboratory destructive tests.
In our Electronics section we carry a wide range of weighing electronics that can be used with our load cells such as digital displays, analog and digital output signal conditioners, wireless load cell interfaces, and load cell-to-computer systems.
All High Capacity Load Cells
Wireless Tension Link Load Cell / Crane Scale
The WL-CTL2 wireless tension link load cell is ideal for weighing and lifting applications such as with cranes, hoists, and winching, that may not lend themselves to standard cabled load cells--- where the cable could get damaged or where it may not be safe to be close to the load cell during a lift.

Engineered for compression force measurements up to 30,000 lbs. and manufactured from heat treated from 17-4 PH stainless steel, this force transducer achieves a maximum nonlinearity of 0.25% full scale.
Tension Link - DCL10
Load Cell Central's versatile LCC-DCL10 Tension Link load cell is designed for use in harsh environments. Employed in a wide variety of lift tests, towing tension, cable tension, crane scale, hoist scale, and tensile testing systems, the DCL10's rugged and convenient link design has lent itself to a never-ending list of applications.
Underwater Load Cell Tension Link - UWTL
Load Cell Central's UWTL Series underwater load cells are built to order. Typical applications include marine towing, oilfield, salvage, construction, and mooring load monitoring.
Crane Overload Limiter Load Cell
The DLWS load cell is designed to clamp onto a static cable / wire rope allowing for a simple way of detecting overload conditions on a crane, hoist, or winch. Optional electronics can be used to provide relay ouptuts to shut down the lifting operation or sound an audible alarm or light.
Crane Overload Limiter Load Cell
The DLWS load cell is designed to clamp onto a static cable / wire rope allowing for a simple way of detecting overload conditions on a crane, hoist, or winch. Optional electronics can be used to provide relay ouptuts to shut down the lifting operation or sound an audible alarm or light.
Alloy Steel Low Cost Compression Load Cell SWCM
The SWCM versatile precision pancake load cell is designed for compression loads in materials testing, force calibration of presses, and many technical and industrial compressive force measurement applications.
Stainless Steel Miniature Button Type - LCSC
Load Cell Central's Model LCSC miniature load cells are bonded foil strain gage transducers designed for low cost production and testing applications (e.g. press calibration). Engineered for compression force measurements up to 50,000 lbs., this model achieves a maximum non-linearity of 0.2% full scale. Precision gaging techniques and stainless steel construction provide excellent long-term stability and reliability under severe operating conditions.
Stainless Steel Thru Hole Type - SCD
Load Cell Central's Model SCD Donut Shaped Load Cell features a smooth thru-hole design perfect for applications which require the load structure to pass directly through the cell. Such applications include bolt force measurements, clamping forces, and monitoring overloads. Load ranges as low as 150 grams and as great as 30,000 pounds can be measured within a maximum full scale non-linearity and hysteresis of 0.5% F.S. These models are used in compression applications and are available in multiple hole sizes.
Universal Shear Web - SRP
Load Cell Central's pancake compression and tension load cell model LCC-SRP has unlimited uses for industrial applications. Mounting using the outer bolt hole circle, the cell is center-loaded in either direction. Compression load button available. Optional base recommended for tension applications. Featuring stainless steel construction, this load cell is suitable for the harshest of environments and is resistant to extraneous bending and side load errors.
Hermetically Sealed Stainless Steel Canister - PCTN, PSCN
The model PCTN/PCSN is a hermetically sealed, stainless steel compression type canister load cell. Its linearity, rugged design, and resistance to off-axis loading errors, make it ideal for harsh industrial and outdoor environments such as truck and track scales, tanks, hoppers, and silos.
Stainless Steel Hermetically Sealed Tension & Compression - UCLC
Load Cell Central's LCC-UCLC is a stainless steel and hermetically sealed canister load cell which can be used in either tension or compression applications. Applications include but are not limited to tensile testing, crane scales, vessel weighing, and batching processes.
Stainless Steel Hermetically Sealed Cardinal® SCA Interchange - CSRN
The LCC-CSRN is a stainless steel and hermetically sealed Rocker Column type load cell, and a direct replacement for the Cardinal® model SCA load cell commonly used in Cardinal truck scales. For the Cardinal HDD version, consult factory.
Stainless Steel Toledo® Cap Check Interchange - CCG3
Load Cell Central's LCC-CCG3 is a stainless steel version of the Toledo Cap Check load cell.
Crane Scale CSM4
The CSM4 crane scale is designed for medium capacity industrial applications such as under-hook crane load weighing and material testing. The bright 1.2" LED display provides easy indoor or outdoor reading of weights.
S-Type - HRS
The HRS hermetically sealed 17-4 stainless steel load cell is submersible to 95psi and can be used in both tension and compression.
Double Ended Shear Beam Alloy Steel - DES1
For use with our Duramount 7-S1 Mounts, our double ended beam load cell DES1 is well suited for hopper and tank weighing applications.
Double Ended Beam Stainless Steel Hermetically Sealed - DESX
Interchangeable with 65016W, 65016WH, the DESX load cell is well suited for outdoor and washdown areas.
Double Ended Beam Alloy Steel - RVSC
Load Cell Central's model LCC-RVSC is designed for multiple load cell applications such as medium to high capacity bin, silo, and hopper weighing applications. The LCC-RVSC, constructed of nickel plated high alloy tool steel and fully potted to IP65 to protect from water damage, is also available in a stainless steel, hermetically sealed version.
