ABSTRACT:
A shear force gauge for applying tension to an elongate wire or a catheter element and continuously sensing the amount of such tension. The gauge comprises a clamp adapted to frictionally engage the elongate element and a spring gauge secured to the clamp to apply tension thereto. In the preferred embodiment, the clamp is adjustable to permit the elongate element to slip relative thereto upon reaching a predetermined tension limit.
