Mark-10 thread adapters and couplings are used to attach force gauge shafts, test stands, grips, and other attachments. The adapters and couplings are available in a range of thread sizes and genders, and range of force capacity from 100 to 1,000 newtons. Pressure gauges are instruments used to measure the pressure of a gas or liquid inside a vessel and, often, to help ensure the optimal amount of pressure for a given application. Pressure gauges can range from everyday instruments, such as those used to measure the air pressure in a car or bicycle tire, to highly accurate gauges used in mechanical and industrial processing. Most often, pressure gauges measure pressure relative to another reference. For instance, gauge pressure measures pressure relative to ambient air. An example of a pressure gauge measuring relative to ambient air is a tire pressure gauge or a blood pressure gauge. Differential pressure is the difference in pressure between two points, such as when measuring liquid flow along various points in a pipeline. An absolute pressure gauge measures pressure relative to a perfect vacuum, such as an atmospheric or barometric pressure gauge. All types of pressure gauges include either a male or a female mount to connect to the vessel where pressure is being measured, and display results on a dial with varying increments of measure across a given range.Mark-10 manufactures force and torque measuring instruments for automotive, textile, pharmaceutical, and medical industries. The company, founded in 1979, is headquartered in Copiague, NY.
