  • Elongation
  • Maximum Load
  • Percentage Elongation
  • Stress
  • Extension
  • Tensile Strength
  • Percentage Yield Point Extension
  • Yield Stress

Packaging
Includes upper and lower grip.

We Can Help!
Selecting the correct grip can be difficult. In fact, improper grips or fixtures are the second leading reason (loadcells are the main reason) why tests fail and results aren't what you expected.

Send us some samples. We'll evaluate and recommend the proper grip or fixture for your application. Just contact your nearest Technical Support Center.
