Laumas TENDITORE300 - PTEND Load Cell Mounting Kit

The Laumas TENDITORE300 - PTEND is a stay rod and anchoring plate arrangement used with load cell mounting accessories where a horizontal constraint is required. It is intended for static industrial weighing applications and provides a practical means of controlling lateral forces within a correctly engineered mounting structure.

The TENDITORE300 is a galvanised steel turnbuckle with dual ball-and-socket joints, installed horizontally. It is equipped with a lock for constraint adjustment, allowing the installer to set the restraint during commissioning. The PTEND is the associated galvanised steel plate used to anchor the turnbuckle to the supporting structure.

Technical Overview

• Product type: stay rod and anchoring plate for load cell mounting accessories
• Components: TENDITORE300 turnbuckle and PTEND anchoring plate
• Material: galvanised steel
• Application: static horizontal constraint
• Working load: 25,000 kg

• Component weights: TENDITORE300 2.1 kg; PTEND 1.5 kg
• Fixings: bolts and pins are not included

In weighing systems, horizontal restraint components must be selected and installed carefully so that they manage side forces without compromising the load path through the load cells. This makes the TENDITORE300 - PTEND relevant for engineers and system integrators working on tanks, hoppers, process vessels and static machinery weighing assemblies.

Before specifying this kit, check the structure, restraint direction, load cell mounting arrangement and installation geometry. The working load and fixing method should be assessed as part of the complete mechanical design, particularly where vibration, thermal movement or external side loading may be present.

Selection Notes

This product should be treated as a mounting accessory component rather than a universal replacement part. Confirm that the TENDITORE300 and PTEND item codes match the required assembly, and ensure that suitable bolts, pins and structural fixing points are specified separately.
