The Rice Lake RL72020-5K 5,000 lb Alloy Steel Double-Ended Beam Load Cell is a rugged, high-accuracy weighing sensor designed for demanding industrial applications where reliability and long-term stability are critical. Manufactured by Rice Lake, this load cell is engineered to perform consistently in truck scale, tank, hopper, and process weighing systems.
 
Constructed from nickel-plated alloy steel, the RL72020-5K offers excellent strength and corrosion resistance. Its double-ended beam design provides superior performance in applications subject to side loading or structural movement, helping maintain accurate weight readings over time.
 
With a rated capacity of 5,000 lb (5000 lb) and a 3.0 mV/V output, this load cell delivers a strong, stable signal compatible with most industrial weight indicators. The unit is environmentally sealed to IP67, protecting internal components from dust and moisture in harsh or outdoor environments.
The RL72020-5K is NTEP certified, making it suitable for legal-for-trade installations when properly applied. A 30 ft integral cable is included to simplify installation and reduce the need for additional wiring components.
 
This load cell is an excellent choice for operators who need a durable, accurate, and field-proven solution for medium-capacity industrial weighing applications.
