Circular Force Sensor with Extended Leads (18.3mm, 20g-6kg, 0.4mm)

The Circular Force Sensor with Extended Leads is an ultra-thin piezoresistive pressure sensor designed for embedded force measurement. With an 18.3mm sensing diameter and rapid response time, it is ideal for students, makers, and engineers adding tactile sensing or touch detection to electronics projects.

Wide force detection range

This sensor detects applied loads ranging from 20g up to 6kg. Its sensitivity across this spectrum allows for reliable touch detection as well as heavier pressure sensing.

Compact thin-film design

Measuring only 0.4mm in thickness, the sensor easily slips into tight mechanical assemblies. Its low-profile build enables pressure monitoring without adding noticeable bulk.

Generous sensing area

The circular sensing zone measures 18.3mm across, providing a broad target area for contact and force distribution.

Rapid response time

With a response speed of under 10ms, the sensor quickly captures dynamic pressure changes for responsive real-time control.
