Load Pins
Accurate - Reliable -Low Cost

Special applications require special load pins. Massload is well aware of this. Over the past years, we have helped hundreds of our customers with their weighing solutions. One common custom application is the load pin. These load pins often replace a shear pin in a machine. They are usually developed to measure the shear force that is exerted on a pin at any given point in time, but can also be used for safety applications as well as load monitoring and data acquisition.

Because most of these pins are designed and built for custom applications, we design to meet your requirements.

We don't charge to design the loadpin, and you can be assured that your pin will give you many years of reliable service with our two year warranty.

We use a custom designed load pin in one of our applications to measure tension on a cable. The device is installed in our own measuring head. The people at Massload were very easy to work with and produced a product that is accurate, repeatable, and plenty linear enough for our application. Since the product is made in Canada, it is also very economical for us.

There are over 50 of these load pins in use in rugged field operations right now. We have also used various tension link load cells and the floater crane scale made by Massload Technologies. Both us and our customers are very happy with the results.
