Testing Products for ASTM A370
TensionThe Master metals standard; it bridges the gap between E8 and specific product specs like A325 bolts.
Recommended Machine: 611-600-690 -
Testing Products for ASTM C1161
FlexureExtreme Stiffness: Ceramics have virtually zero elongation. Any frame squish will ruin your modulus data.
Recommended Machine: 100-1000-6 -
Testing Products for ASTM D1002
Shear (Lap)Bond Line Control: The thickness of the glue determines the stress distribution.
Recommended Machine: 313-50-1200 -
Testing Products for ASTM D1004
TearInitiation Force: This test is the starting gun. It measures the peak force to break the surface of a plastic…

Testing Products for ASTM D1037
MultipleMoisture Balance: Wood properties change drastically with humidity; condition for 48 hours minimum.
Recommended Machine: 314-100-1215 -
Testing Products for ASTM D1621
CompressionInitial Contact: Defining the zero point is hard on soft foams. Use a 1N pre-load to establish a consistent start.
Recommended Machine: 140-2250-6 -
Testing Products for ASTM D1623
TensionBond Failure: This test often fails at the adhesive interface rather than the foam itself.
Recommended Machine: 314-100-1215 -
Testing Products for ASTM D1708
TensionScale Matters: When specimens are this small, the mass of the grip should be as close to zero as possible.
Recommended Machine: 100-500-6 -
Testing Products for ASTM D1781
Measures the bond strength of sandwich panel skins to the core. Uses a unique rotating drum fixture.

Testing Products for ASTM D1876
PeelPeel Rate: The speed of the peel dramatically affects the average force recorded.
Recommended Machine: 240-250-1040 -
Testing Products for ASTM D1894
FrictionThe Sled Weight: The standard sled must weigh exactly 200g ± 5g to calculate the COF accurately.
Recommended Machine: 100-250-12 -
Testing Products for ASTM D2261
TearThe Average of Five Peaks: The result isn’t the highest force, but the average of the five highest peaks.
Recommended Machine: 100-1000-6 -
Testing Products for ASTM D2344
Shear (SBS)Resin Check: This tests the interlaminar glue (matrix), not the fiber.
Recommended Machine: 314-100-1215 -
Testing Products for ASTM D2979
Tension (Tack)The Quick Stick: Measures how much force is needed to pull a 5mm probe away from a sticky surface.
Recommended Machine: 100-250-12 -
Testing Products for ASTM d2990
CreepThermal Drift: In long-term creep tests, ambient temperature fluctuations can cause sensor drift.
Recommended Machine: 313-50-1200 -
Testing Products for ASTM D3039
TensionExplosive Failure: Composites store massive energy and shatter upon failure.
Recommended Machine: 316-300-1130 -
Testing Products for ASTM D3163
ShearSubstrate Flex: Unlike metal lap-shear, plastic substrates often bend during the shear pull.
Recommended Machine: 314-100-1215 -
Testing Products for ASTM D3330
PeelSubstrate Cleanliness: The stainless steel test plate must be cleaned with reagent-grade solvent after every test.
