Upgraded Backing Materials of Metal Foil Strain Gauges

Upgraded Backing Materials of Metal Foil Strain Gauges

18 April 2018

BCM SENSOR has recently successfully upgraded the materials of the backing layer of its metal foil strain gauge from FIBA to FIBAL:

- F: modified phenolic resin
- I: modified polyimide resin
- B: laminated polyetherketone
- A: advanced laminated polyimide
- L: laminated polyimide

Thanks to the different backing materials, the strain gauges from BCM SENSOR can have different working temperature ranges as listed below:

- F: -30~+80°C
- I: -85~+150°C
- B: -45~+150°C
- A: -195~+200°C
- L: -55~+150°C

These wide working temperature ranges can meet the requirements of various applications, from commercial and normal industrial applications to automotive and military applications.

Both backing A and L are laminated polyimide. The gauge with backing A features the widest working temperature, while the gauge with backing L can have the highest strain limit up to 40,000με.
