Tension Link Load Cells
Tension link load cells are the go-to option for many tension applications including, but not limited to; Crane scales, pull testing, high wind structure testing, equipment rigging, and safety load monitoring.
Made from alloy steel or stainless steel, Load Cell Central’s tension link load cells are ready for even the most harsh environments. If cost is a concern, nickel and zinc plated alloy steel models are available for the best value between cost and environmental protection. All our models are IP67 and suitable for outdoor use. Custom versions can be hermetically sealed to IP68 specifications for ultra-wet environments. Call us for help in designing a custom submersible tension link for your application. More information can be found on our submersible load cells page.
When paired with shackles and one of our indicators, signal conditioners, or load cell amplifiers, our tension link load cells are ready to interface into your existing system, or new application.
Our tension links are available with a wide variety of options, from submersible to custom outputs like 4-20mA, 0-5VDC, 0-10VDC, RS232, RS485, USB, and more!
With our 24/7 technical support, you can be sure our sales technicians are available to take your call at all hours. Load Cell Central will assist in improving efficiency and reducing down time.

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.
Crane Overload Limiter Clamp-On Load Cell - DLWS
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.
Wireless Tension Link Load Cell / Crane Scale - WL-CTL2
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.
Low-Profile Dynamometer Load Cell - DCL12
Our lowest profile dynamometer tension link load cell. The lifting eyes are rotated 90 degrees from one another giving the dynamometer another axis of movement which is essential for swaying loads.
Load Shackle Load Cell - STLC
Our load shackle load cells are built using industry standard Crosby™ shackles. Ideal for winching, rigging, and mooring applications, they can be installed in any in-line pulling application to measure the forces being applied to the load pin sensor.
Wireless Load Shackle - WL-STLC
Our wireless load shackles have a range of up to 600 meters (clear line of sight). Built using industry standard Crosby™ shackles makes it ideal for lifting, hoisting, and winching applications.
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.
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.
