Expert Commentary
Measures the Shear Strength of Adhesive Bonds between Rigid Substrates by the Block-Shear Method. Two blocks are bonded and pushed apart. The engineering focus is on Uniformity of Loading. MTO’s block-shear fixture features a Self-Aligning loading head that ensures the force is applied parallel to the bond line. This is a common Quick-Check test for industrial adhesives because it doesn’t require the complex specimen machining of lap-shear (D1002).
