0° - 90° Patterns: Dual Grid

Bi-axial strain gages, often referred to as Poisson gages, are 90° tee rosette gages, aligned with the principal strains in uniaxial stress loading, for use in column load cells or simple cantilever applications. 

In column load cells, the gages are utilized to cancel bending strains and for cantilever beam applications, these sensors allow for gaging a single side of the spring element to reduce cost.
