factory-direct spoke type load cell, built to the application-specific capacity and accuracy your project requires.
The WST501 is a spoke type load cell. All figures on this page come from the factory parameter sheet — what you read here is what ships.
Contact our engineers for the complete datasheet and design-in support.
WST501 silo weighing system or press machine use spoke type compression load cell, The pancake load cell features and applications are as follows:
The spoke type load cell features low height, good rigidity, high accuracy, and strong anti-offset capacity.
The through hole load cell is widely used in belt scales, hopper scales, warehouse scales, charging buckets, material mechanics testing machine, labor safety testing equipment, etc.
Complete technical parameters, as delivered from the factory.

Every unit is factory calibrated and inspected before dispatch; parameters on this page reflect shipped goods.
Wheel-end dynamometer rigs use the WST501 as the radial load element to characterise suspension, brake and cornering performance at the hub.
Radial load only
Replace a tension / compression spoke on bicycle, motorcycle and powersports wheels with the WST501 for live wheel-load data without instrumentation legs.
Spoke-fit form
Laboratory chassis dynos and road-load simulators pair two or more WST501 units to reconstruct real-world vertical and lateral wheel loads.
