The ST350 Strain Transducer was developed out of necessity in the early stages of BDI. Our field teams needed to quickly and accurately measures strain on a variety of structures in a way that no other product could. Now, nearly four decades later, the ST350 Strain Transducer is the gold standard in structural health monitoring, which promises the fastest setup times and most reliable readings.

The ST350 is a resistive-based strain gage, made up of a 350ohm full Wheatstone bridge strain transducer to provide accurate, reliable, readings. Cable entry into the aluminum enclosure is fully potted for a weatherproof product that performs in the harshest of field environments. With roughly 3.5 times the output of a typical foil gage, these reusable sensors are ideal for measuring live-load strain.

These sensors are designed to be the most rugged and easy-to-use strain gages on the market, allowing you to install them in minutes in any weather condition. You can use the ST350 to measure strain on steel, concrete, reinforced concrete, fiber reinforced polymers, and timber with our full suite of accessories and mounting options.
