Can't find a link for the one in pounds but our company just forked out £456 for a laminated piece of paper with a few squares on it.

How can they justify charging this much for it!

Looks like thats the price per roll, £30 per foot.

What exactly does it do? Assuming it's for calbriating then I'd imagine that it must be made to within a very high tolerance rather then just being printed on an inkjet printer.

They can justify it because your company paid for it.

Because they know companies like yours will pay it?

For Fuji pressure film and the scanner/software that reads it.

If you want acurate clamp load pressure data then you need it. Very good kit.

Saw a trial of a realtime dynamic load film previously too. Problem with that was that you couldn;t cut it up!
