Load Pins

For most overhead weighing applications, traditional scales are an ideal solution. However, applications with limited to no headroom require specialty equipment beyond even reduced-height or low-profile crane scales.

One such solution is an MSI load pin sensor. A load pin sensor is a type of load cell that directly replaces clevis, pivot, normal shaft or equalizer pins. Load pin sensors are designed to be permanently installed, so they can continuously monitor vertical or horizontal tension. An integrated load pin provides load monitoring and overload protection without impacting headroom to promote safety and to prevent costly equipment damage.

Rice Lake’s industry leading engineers design and manufacture custom load pin sensors for any application. Every load pin is constructed from stainless steel for safety, strength (minimum 5:1) and corrosion resistance.
