Extensometer Tensile Testing
Applied Technical Services offers extensometer tensile testing through our cutting-edge tensile testing laboratory. Our laboratory houses top-of-the-line technology to provide our clients with the best possible testing experience. A few common materials our technicians regularly test include:
- Metals
- Metal Wire
- Fasteners
- Plastics
- Pipes
- Rubber
- Rebar
- Tubes
- Composites
- Welds
What is an Extensometer?
An extensometer is a piece of equipment used to measure the elongation of a sample material under stress. Our technicians analyze the data provided and plot it onto a stress-strain curve. This allows us to provide valuable material characteristics such as:
- Tensile strength
- Yield strength
- Yield point
- Ultimate strength
- Modulus of elasticity
- Elastic limit
- Ductility
- Elongation
- Proportional limit
- Area reduction
These characteristics give clients ample information regarding their component’s viability. ATS experts utilize extensometer tensile testing on a regular basis.
Additional Tensile Testing Capabilities
The tensile testing laboratory at Applied Technical Services offers a wide range of additional testing methods such as plastic, high-temperature, metals, and rubbers. Plastic tensile testing analyzes elasticity before or until failure. This gives our clients the necessary information to determine whether their material is suitable for their service conditions. Plastic tensile testing conducted at ATS labs is performed in compliance with ASTM D638. This standard by the American Society for Testing Materials covers nonreinforced plastic and reinforced plastic tensile testing. ASTM D638 analyzes the following material characteristics:
- Elongation and percent elongation at yield
- Elongation and percent elongation at break
- Tensile strength
- Tensile strain
- Tensile modulus
Another common tensile testing method our lab conducts is high-temperature tensile testing. This method tests a material’s resistance to elevated temperatures. This is particularly useful in industries such as automation, military, power generation, and aerospace. Equipment and components used in these industries undergo extreme temperatures during service and, as such, must be able to withstand these conditions and still perform their primary function. Similar to plastic tensile testing, high-temperature tensile testing measures material characteristics such as:
