Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is the MT500LU3BX 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 MT500LU3BX use?
A: This configuration uses a LG mounting interface in a vertical orientation, for bench-top use.

Q: Does the MT500LU3BX 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 MT500LU3BX?
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.
