Typical applications: The MT500LEXHX provides a stable, repeatable platform for push/pull force testing in QA and production environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is the MT500LEXHX motorized or manual?
A: Manual. It uses a hand lever rather than a motor, giving you direct, feel-based control over travel speed during push/pull force testing.

Q: What mounting and orientation does the MT500LEXHX use?
A: This configuration uses a DF mounting interface in a horizontal orientation, and can be set up as a bench-top unit or wall-mounted.

Q: Does the MT500LEXHX include a travel indicator?
A: Not built in on this configuration — if you need to log travel distance, choose the Ruler Assembly or Digital Travel Indicator version instead.

Q: Is a force gauge included with the MT500LEXHX?
A: No — the test stand is sold separately from the force gauge.

Q: What is the “Ultra-Extended Travel” option for?
A: It gives the stand a longer working stroke than the standard MT500, useful for testing parts or assemblies that need more travel distance than a standard-travel stand provides.
