SpectraFlex Flex Sensor - 95mm with Male Pins

SpectraFlex is a flexible bend sensor for measuring angular deflection in research, industrial and personal electronics projects. As the sensor bends, its resistance changes, making it suitable for reading movement or flex through a simple analogue circuit.

This 95mm version includes male pins for straightforward prototyping. The sensor is designed to be lightweight and thin, helping it fit into applications where bulk and weight matter.

Its low-drift technology is intended to keep readings stable, while the durable construction is rated for a long bend life. A datasheet is available from the manufacturer for detailed implementation information.

Specifications:

• Flat Resistance (Ohms): 18,000 ±20%
• Resistance Change Multiplier: defined as a function of bend radius (8mm) and angular deflection (180°): >2x
• Repeatability (under controlled conditions): ±2%
• Operating Temperature: -35°C to +80°C
• Life Cycle: >2 million cycles with a bend angle of 180° over an 8mm (0.315”) radius
• Recommended Bend Radius: 2.5mm to 8mm

A good fit for wearable prototypes, motion sensing, robotics experiments and other projects that need a compact bend input.
