- 01 / 06Shear beam load cells
Shear beam load cells for confirmed-fit replacement and scale builds.
The Zemic H8C is a shear beam load cell family manufactured in nickel-plated alloy steel with IP68 ingress protection, offered in 24 capacity variations spanning 250 lb – 20,000 lb and 250 kg – 10,000 kg. This page describes the family; use the capacity table below to select and order the specific SKU your application requires.
Every H8C variation shares the same series-level material, sealing, and core electrical specification (impedance, excitation, temperature range, overload rating). Capacity, manufacturer part number, SKU and price are listed in the table; class, rated output (mV/V), number of wires and dimensions are given per SKU.

Shear beam cells are common choices for floor scales, livestock platforms, tanks, hoppers, and low-to-mid capacity industrial scales.
01Platforms and floor scales
A practical load-cell family for fabricated platforms and summing-box systems.
platform02Tanks and hoppers
Works well when mounts control side load and vessel movement.
vessel03Livestock and agriculture
Often used in platform and chute builds when capacity and environmental rating fit.

CAPACITYSelect by capacity
Use the capacity table below to find the SKU rated for your load, then confirm the manufacturer part number before ordering.
MECHANICALMechanical fit
Check mounting pattern, installed height, load point, cable exit, and platform or vessel geometry for the selected capacity SKU.
ENVIRONMENTEnvironment
Family protection rating is IP68. Verify washdown, outdoor, corrosive, or hazardous exposure before replacement.
ELECTRICALElectrical match
Confirm excitation, mV/V output, impedance, wiring color code, and indicator/transmitter input for the selected capacity SKU.
04 / 06Installation notesA load cell is only correct when the assembly around it is correct.
The safest way to quote or replace a load cell is to verify the installed geometry and the electrical interface together. Capacity alone is not enough.
- Match mounting holes, load point, thread, and installed height
- Confirm cell count and junction-box wiring
- Confirm material and protection rating for the environment
- Confirm rated output, excitation, and input/output impedance
- Keep datasheets, photos, and old part numbers with the service record

Product Order code Zemic H8C Alloy Steel Shear beam load cell H8C Is the H8C parent SKU enough to order?
No. H8C identifies the family. Use the capacity table below to find the SKU and manufacturer part number for the specific capacity your application requires.
Can WeightechUSA help identify a match?
Yes. Send photos of the installed cell, the label, mounting dimensions, cable colors, capacity, and the scale application.
Talk to a WeightechUSA load-cell specialist.
Send the old load-cell label, capacity, dimensions, cable details, and application. We will confirm which H8C capacity SKU is the right fit.
