Sir, do you have the tension gauge in 30-35lbs. deflection force capacity?

max is 35lb which is some capacity, wouldn't want to speculate on accuracy !

Where do I find deflection force?

At the customary mid-point deflection of 1/64" per inch of span, the deflection force is about 1/16 the actual belt tension. Deflection force is read off the telescoping stem of the tension gauge, but be sure to slide the O-ring all the way back before using the tool. Use the inch scale on the barrel of the tool along with a straight edge to measure the deflection. (Note: the barrel goes against the belt; you push on the telescoping stem.) You can find the recommended belt tension in manufacturers tables.

what is the tool diameter ?

Hello, The diameter of the tip that pushes on the belt is 0.8 cm and the ticker part above is like 1.1 1.2 cm

What is the size (Length) of this gauge?

About the length of a wood pencil after a couple of sharpenings.
