Tensile Testing: ASTM and Other Test Standards For Tensile Strength Testing of Materials

Tensile testing involves stretching a material until failure to measure its strength properties. It can be performed on many material types to determine metrics like yield strength, tensile strength, and elasticity. Tensile testing provides reliable data on how manufacturing processes may impact a product's performance when exposed to conditions like sterilization, aging, or various temperatures and humidity levels. DDL's universal tester can conduct tensile tests and custom fixtures allow for different procedures depending on specific needs.

Tensile Testing

testedandproven.com/materials-testing/tensile-testing
Tensile testing is one of the most common ways of
measuring material strength. It involves the linear
stretching of a material until failure or some critical
value is achieved. Tensile testing can be performed on
most types of materials and gives information about
yield strength, ultimate tensile strength, modulus of
elasticity (stiffness), elongation, and other important
properties.
Tensile testing is a reliable way to get data about how
different processes may affect the performance of your
final product processes such as sterilization,
extended aging periods, and exposure to various
temperature and humidity conditions.
At DDL, our universal tester can not only perform tensile tests, but our large number of custom grips and
fixtures allow us to perform many different types of procedures depending on your specific needs.
