Strain Gage

The US Air Force is seeking sources for commercially available strain gage equipment. The equipment must meet the specifications provided in the attachment, including a wavelength of 1550 nm, strain sensing of ~1.2 pm/micro strain, and a sensing length of ~1 mm. The government requires 6-12 units of the equipment. The key features of the required equipment include: • Wavelength: 1550 nm • Strain Sensing: ~1.2 pm/micro strain • Sensing Length: ~1 mm • Peak Reflectivity: > 70% • Fastening Method: Epoxy • Connector Type: FC Type Connector • Cable Length: Minimum 1m
