Tensile Testing
Tensile testing is one of the most common methods in mechanical testing. The method is used to characterize the strength properties of a material.
We can perform tensile tests up to a test force of 600,000 N (approx. 60 tonnes) where the breaking limit, yield strength, elongation and contraction can be evaluated.
In our Mechanical Workshop, the test rods are manufactured for tensile testing.
Typical applications:
- Testing of rebar, up to 32 mm
- Testing of screw connections
- Determination of yield strength, elongation at break and area reduction on standardized test rods.
Scope of Accreditation
- SS-EN ISO 6892-1
- SS-EN ISO 15630-2
- ASTM E8
- ASTM E8M
Tensile tester Quasar kN 600
Our new tester from Galdabini complements our previous tensile tester, which enables us to handle larger volumes of testing.
