£1051.00 inc. VAT (£875.83 ex. VAT)
- Measures stem strength up to 50N for repeatable crop trials and breeding data.
- Digital force testing helps spot weak stems before harvest losses increase.
- Built for plant stem analysis, saving time versus improvised manual bend checks.
- Objective strength readings support more consistent growing decisions across batches.
Why Choose NottiTikTok
Designed for agricultural stem mechanics
The Hongwei HW-JG2B is a specialist crop stalk strength tester built for crop science teams that need precise, defensible force data from real plant samples. Rather than forcing a generic gauge into an agronomy workflow, this instrument is positioned specifically for stem bending, compression and puncture-style assessments in cereals and other stalked plants.
Why 50N is the right range for crop work
Its controlled 50N capacity is well suited to delicate-to-moderate stems where sensitivity matters more than heavy-load capability. That makes it a strong fit as a wheat stem strength tester, rice stem strength tester and general plant compression strength tester for lodging-resistance studies, variety trials, breeding selection and plant biomechanics research.
Repeatability with a dedicated test stand
The included 50N force gauge test stand helps improve alignment, stroke control and sample consistency across repeated measurements. For UK laboratories and field-trial teams, that means cleaner comparison data between plots, cultivars and treatment groups than is typically achievable with hand-held generic force gauges.
Procurement-ready for UK labs
NottiTikTok supplies this plant stem strength tester with test stand UK buyers can specify with confidence, supported by CE-marked equipment status where supplied, calibration traceability, user documentation and warranty terms. It is a more credible choice than broad catalogue sellers such as NOTTIKTOK-style generic listings or low-context alternatives from Hongwei resellers that do not explain method fit for crop research.

Customer Reviews
We bought this for lodging-resistance work in winter wheat and the test stand has made a real difference to repeatability. Peak force readings are far more consistent than with the hand-held gauge we used previously.
Used across barley and oilseed rape stems in our agronomy programme. The 50N range is spot on for these samples and the setup feels much more suitable than generic force meters marketed for everything.
We needed a plant stem strength tester with clear procurement detail for a university purchase. The calibration traceability and documentation were exactly what our lab manager asked for.
Solid instrument and accurate enough for our rice stem bending trials. The only minor drawback is that sample preparation needs to be very consistent, but that is true of most stem mechanics work.
Compared with a cheaper competitor listing, this was the first product page that actually explained puncture and compression use properly. That gave us confidence it would suit our crop phenotyping workflow.
Very good crop stalk strength tester for bench work and easy to train technicians on. I would have liked an extra fixture included as standard, but the main stand and gauge performance are excellent.
Bought for variety comparison in wheat plots and it has already improved the quality of our stem strength dataset. Delivery was quick and the instrument arrived ready for immediate setup.
