What are you trying to do with it?
There may be a mechanical workaround.

For long force sensors, the classic solution is to use a rubber tube, and
monitior the internal pressure (easily done, by hacking one of those cheap
electronic blood pressure meters).

24" isnt quite long enough and I've checked Interlinks page and thats the
longest they can do.  Flexiforce only seems to do point force sensors, not
long ones like I'm looking for.
