5 Series Force Gauge, 1 lbF / 16 ozF / 500 gF / 0.5 kgF / 5 N / 5000 mN

The Mark-10 M5-1 Series 5 Advanced Digital Force Gauge is designed for precision tension and compression force testing in laboratory, manufacturing, quality control, and product testing environments. Featuring a 7,000 Hz sampling rate and ±0.1% full-scale accuracy, the M5-1 captures fast-changing force events while delivering consistent and repeatable measurement results.With a capacity of 1 lbF (5 N), the M5-1 combines high-speed data acquisition, onboard memory, multiple output options, and intuitive operation in a compact handheld instrument. Its reversible aluminum housing supports both handheld use and integration with compatible Mark-10 test stands for more advanced testing applications.The gauge includes MESUR Lite software for data acquisition and reporting, allowing users to collect continuous or single-point measurements and export data directly to Excel for further analysis.The Mark-10 M5-1 is engineered to support a wide range of force measurement applications, from routine quality inspections to product development testing. The 7,000 Hz sampling rate helps capture transient force events that may be missed by slower instruments, while onboard memory stores up to 1,000 readings for later review or export.Integrated statistical analysis provides minimum, maximum, mean, and standard deviation calculations directly on the device, helping users evaluate testing consistency without additional software processing.The live load bar graph and programmable pass/fail set points make the M5-1 especially useful for production environments where quick visual feedback and repeatable testing procedures are important.The M5-1 digital force gauge offers flexible connectivity for data collection and system integration.Automatic data output is available through USB and RS-232, while Gauge Control Language 2 enables full computer control. Included MESUR Lite software allows users to record force measurements, organize test data, and export results to Microsoft Excel.The Mark-10 M5-1 Series 5 Advanced Digital Force Gauge is directly compatible with Mark-10 test stands, grips, fixtures, and software platforms.This versatility makes the M5-1 a practical solution for organizations seeking a dependable digital force gauge, force testing equipment, tension and compression tester, or industrial force measurement instrument.
