Why RSGH

Resolve very small strains with confidence

RSGH rosettes give sensor designers the output of a semiconductor gage in the rosette format their teams already know how to install.

Gage Factor up to 150

Our RSGH rosettes feature gage factors of up to 150, yielding a sensitivity 70 times greater than standard metal foil strain gages.

Resolve very small strains with confidence.
