If you're sourcing load cells for weighing, force measurement, or industrial automation, Independent Scale Service (ISS) stocks one of the broadest ranges in Australia — from precision single point cells to heavy-duty weighbridge compression units. Every load cell ships with calibration certification and technical support, and capacities span from 2.5 kg right up to 20,000 lb.

Below is the full current range (39 products), grouped by type, with a direct link to each product page.

Shear Beam Load Cells

Square Shearbeam PT5000

Shear beam cells are a workhorse choice for platform scales, hoppers, and tank weighing where a compact, rugged sensor is needed.

S-Type Tension/Compression Load Cells

Stainless S-Type Loadcell LCSST

Ideal for hanging scales, crane scales, and applications needing both tension and compression measurement.

Single Point Load Cells

Stainless Steel Single Point Loadcell PTSSP6-N

Common in bench, retail, and platform scales where a single sensor supports the full platform.

Compression & Weighbridge Load Cells

Weighbridge Compression IP68 HPC

Built for high-capacity, heavy industrial applications like weighbridges and structural load monitoring.

Bending Beam Load Cells

Stainless Bending Beam PT8000

Suited to low-capacity platform and bench scale applications requiring high accuracy.

Tank, Hopper & Silo Weighing

PT7000 Stainless Mini Disk Load Cell

Purpose-built for vessel weighing applications, often paired with weigh modules for easy retrofitting.

Shackle Pins & Suspension Hardware

Suspension Shackle High Capacity HCSS

For crane scales and suspended-load weighing where the load cell doubles as a structural pin.
