The Quick-Check Red Cable Tension Meter measures line tension in guy wires, zip lines, guardrail cable, guyed mast towers and overhead lines. It installs, measures and removes in seconds. The Quick-Check features a precision loadcell for highly accurate measurements that do not require lookup or correction tables.

Calibration
Suggested wire calibrations:
Calibrate each cable diameter installed with the most appropriate sheaves. If two cable types are used of the same diameter (e.g. ½” 7x7 and ½” 6x19), calibrate each type independently if accuracy is critical.
Recalibration: At user discretion. Commonly 24 months but should be more frequently with heavy use. Factory recalibration conducted typically in 2-4 days.
Custom Calibration Available
The Quick-Check can be calibrated with a customer supplied sample if none of the factory calibrated materials are suitable. In this case a 10 ft. sample must be supplied (non-returnable).
Complete Kit
The Quick-Check Red is supplied as a complete kit including tension meter, instruction manual and calibration certificate in a heavy duty carrying case.
