Key Features

Flexible nano sensor under 0.25mm thick – conforms to curved or moving surfaces
Waterproof pressure-sensitive centre pad
3-pin header connection; behaves like a variable resistor for simple interfacing
Response time under 1ms; recovery time under 15ms
Accurate to 2.5% in the 0–0.5kg range; handles up to 10kg gross weight
Rated for over 100,000 press cycles

Product Overview

You need to measure force or pressure and a rigid load cell won't fit your design. This thin-film sensor is under 0.25mm thick, waterproof, and flexes with whatever surface it's mounted on. Press the centre pad and you get a proportional electrical signal back – it works like a variable resistor, so wiring it up is as simple as a pot. Three-pin header, breadboard-ready. Most accurate in the 0–0.5kg range, handles up to 10kg gross if you need headroom. Response time under 1ms means it keeps up with fast-acting mechanisms
