An analog force gauge is a mechanical device used to measure force, typically in both tension (pull) and compression (push) applications. Unlike digital models, it operates without batteries or electronics, relying on a spring mechanism that moves a needle across a dial to display the measurement. Analog Force Gauges are durable, straightforward to use, and ideal for environments where electronics may be impractical or unnecessary. They’re commonly used in quality control, material testing, and industrial applications, providing reliable force measurements in units like Newtons (N), pounds-force (lbf), or kilograms-force (kgf).
