Expert Commentary
The most common standard for Apparent Shear Strength of Single-Lap-Joint Adhesively Bonded Metal Specimens. This is the Lap Shear test. The engineering focus is on Alignment. If the grips aren’t offset to account for the thickness of the overlap, the joint will rotate (bend), introducing peel stresses. MTO’s lap-shear grips include built-in Offset Shims to keep the pull-line perfectly centered through the bond line.
