Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is the MT500HU3H2 motorized or manual?
A: Manual. It uses a hand-turned wheel rather than a motor, giving fine, controlled incremental travel — well suited to slow, precisely-controlled testing.

Q: What mounting and orientation does the MT500HU3H2 use?
A: This configuration uses a LG mounting interface in a horizontal orientation, and can be set up as a bench-top unit or wall-mounted.

Q: Does the MT500HU3H2 include a travel indicator?
A: This configuration includes a ruler assembly for manually reading travel distance rather than a digital readout.

Q: Is a force gauge included with the MT500HU3H2?
A: No — the test stand is sold separately from the force gauge. Pair it with a compatible Chatillon digital or mechanical force gauge sized to your required capacity.

Q: What does “Ultra-Extended Travel” mean for the MT500HU3H2?
A: It gives the stand a longer working stroke than the standard or extended-travel versions, useful for testing parts or assemblies that need more travel distance.
