Tensionmeter Repairs & Maintenance
To keep your Penn-Tech Cable Tensionmeter performing at its best:
- Keep it dry and clean.
- Annual maintenance and recalibration is recommended (to protect your unit from natural wear and tear).
- Do not use penetrating oils to grease your unit; these oils remove grease and jeopardize the unit's integrity.
- See our Price List for annual-maintenance and replacement-part prices.
- Contact us if you have questions about recalibration or repairs, or to order replacement parts.
- Review Sending Tensionmeters for Repairs & Maintenance before you ship your Tensionmeter.
