Spectra Symbol Flex Sensor FS-L-055-253-RH 55mm Female Plain Housing Connector
The Spectra Symbol FS-L-055-253-RH is a 55mm resistive flex sensor with a female plain housing connector, designed for angle displacement measurement in robotics, medical devices, and interactive systems. It provides a variable resistance output compatible with analog inputs on microcontrollers like Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and other 3.3V/5V logic platforms.
Features
- 55mm active length resistive flex sensor with 25 kΩ nominal resistance (±30% tolerance).
- Female plain housing connector for secure, solderless integration into prototype and production systems.
- Low-profile, durable strip construction physically bends with the motion of the device.
- Wide operating temperature range from -35°C to 80°C for robust environmental performance.
- Outputs variable resistance proportional to bend angle for precise displacement measurement.

The FS-L-055-253-RH flex sensor from Spectra Symbol operates on a fundamental resistive sensing principle. A conductive ink pattern is printed on a flexible polymer substrate; as the strip is bent, the geometry of this conductive path changes, resulting in a measurable increase in electrical resistance. This analog resistance change is directly proportional to the bend radius or angle, providing a simple yet effective method for quantifying physical deflection.
Engineered for reliability, the sensor’s robust construction ensures consistent performance through repeated flex cycles. The integrated female connector facilitates quick wiring and system integration, eliminating the need for soldering directly to the sensitive strip. Its compact dimensions and low profile make it ideal for embedding into space-constrained applications such as robotic joints, wearable motion capture suits, and haptic feedback interfaces.
