MTS offers a wide variety of fixtures. Mounting these fixtures typically involves
installing the fixture or load cell onto a mounting (clevis pin) adapter and
securing it with a mounting dowel (pin). To further secure a fixture, some
configurations also include locking collars. A typical mounting configuration is
