Tensile test
The static tensile test is the basic and most frequently performed test of the strength of materials. The test consists in stretching a standardized specimen in opposite directions until it breaks.
We define such properties as:
- percentage reduction of the cross-section Z [%]
- percentage after breaking A [%]
- percentage elongation at maximum force Agt [%]
- maximum force Fm [N]
- tensile strength Rm [MPa]
- yield stress Re [MPa]
- proof stress Rp [MPa]
Tensile test is performed in compliance with:
- PN-EN ISO 6892-1
- PN-EN ISO 6892-2
- PN-EN ISO 5178
- PN-EN ISO 4136
- PN-EN 10164
- PN-EN ISO 9018
