HI-Load 5000 (5kN Loading Device)
Product Code : JA-MI-4923
The HI-Load 5000, a 5 kN loading device (SKU JA-MI-4923), applies load through a proving ring using a fine-thread screw jack with 75 mm travel. The ring deflection is read by a digital dial gauge that shows the load directly in decanewtons, and a zero-setting switch removes the effect of self weight and the initial set-up of an experiment. The ring works in compression, and a loading yoke is provided so that tension loads can also be applied. It is supplied by JaincoLab for structures laboratories and student projects.
Specifications
The device applies up to 5 kN through a lightweight proving ring driven by a fine-thread screw jack with 75 mm travel, with direct digital read-out of load in decanewtons, a zero-setting switch and a loading yoke for tension.

Applications of the 5 kN loading device
A screw-jack loading device lets students apply large, controlled loads in any direction and read the true load directly, instead of stacking heavy cast iron weights.
- Applying loads to beams, frames and trusses in structures experiments
- Compression and tension tests on model members
- Student projects needing large, accurate loads in any direction
- Replacing cast iron weight hangers in loading experiments
