Expert Commentary
Measures the Bursting Strength of Textiles (Ball Burst Test). A 25.4 mm steel ball is pushed through a clamped fabric specimen. The engineering focus is on the Multi-Axial Tensile state induced by the ball. MTO provides the standardized Ring Clamp and Polished Ball fixture. This is a high-volume test for the performance apparel and industrial filter industries, where the material must resist poking or localized pressure failures rather than simple uniaxial tension.
