I was wondering what you guys use or recommend for a load cell for my Palfinger PK 40 series knuckle boom?

I have a paradigm load cell it’s been good, others @Steve Connally use another brand which are good as well, having a brain fart on the name though Steve can tell you

Straightpoint. They offer a Bluetooth version that displays on your cell, or a unit that displays on a separate remote.

Might not be the best for that application but the "line scale 3" is pretty awesome.

Straightpoint radiolink RC plus. 26,000lb similar to above

Straightpoint also made me custom load sensing pin for the grapplesaw.

On the custom pin set up for the grapple saw? Thanks

So the pin was about $3600 with the handheld. I have the spec sheet on it and can provide that and a point of contact. I’d shop for the loadcell at FAD Equipment store. This is run by their former CEO of straightpoint after Crosby bought them out. When you contact them please mention I referred you. Not promises but that might help you out a little. They’re on IG and they pretty much repost all my
Posts to their story. They can also get you hooked up on the custom pin process. His name is David Ayling. He also blogs under Mr Loadcell. FAD equipment store. Short for Find a Distributor.
