Abstract: Disclosed herein is a load cell provided with a high-precision load-sensing member of ceramic on which are formed patterns of thin-film resistance for strain gages which are not subject to breakage and variation of resistance. The load cell comprises a bending beam of ceramic material and strain gages of thin-film resistance formed thereon, with the bending beam having a surface coated with amorphous glass on which are formed said strain gages of thin-film resistance. The strain gages are formed from an alloy composed of iron and one or more selected from chromium, cobalt, tungsten, molybdenum, niobium, and tantalum, and a small amount of impurities.
