Force Gauges are an essential tool for measuring tension and compression forces in many industrial, commercial, and laboratory applications. Omega offers a comprehensive selection of force gauges each designed to be easy-to-use and provide uncompromising accuracy. Omega force gauges have a rugged, ergonomic housing, making them suitable for both handheld and mounted applications. Omega features digital and analog force gauges meter including models with easy USB connectivity for data output. Our gauges measure in pounds, kilograms, or Newtons. Many of our models offer selectable units of measure.

Frequently Asked Questions

Professional calibration is recommended every 12 months for standard industrial use to maintain measurement accuracy. In high-vibration sectors like mining or oil and gas, 6-monthly intervals are preferred to ensure ISO 17025 compliance and operational safety.

Liquid-filled gauges dampen the effects of vibration and pressure pulsations, which are common in heavy-duty Australian machinery. This protection extends the life of internal components and ensures the dial remains easy to read during high-intensity operations.

Yes, HK Calibrations provides on-site mobile calibration for vacuum, compound, and standard pressure gauges across Australia. Our mobile labs allow us to certify your instruments at your facility, significantly reducing downtime for critical systems in Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane.

Digital pressure gauges offer superior precision, data logging, and eliminate parallax reading errors common with analog dials. They are ideal for Australian businesses requiring high-resolution tracking for compliance audits and precise peak pressure monitoring.

Absolutely. Every pressure gauge we sell or service is fully traceable to national measurement standards, ensuring your results are legally defensible. We provide a comprehensive calibration certificate with every unit to support your quality management and audit requirements.

If a gauge does not return to zero, it indicates internal damage or significant drift; it should be removed from service immediately. Contact a professional lab for recalibration or repair to avoid hazardous over-pressure situations in your facility.
