Metal Tensile Testing
Metal Tensile Testing
One of the most common engineering materials, steel is a staple in the manufacture and construction of tools, buildings, bridges, appliances, furniture, pipelines, and more. Analyzing the ultimate tensile strength of steel and alloyed metals, SGS MSi’s tension testing methods assess the stress-strain response and help you select the best steel type for your application.
Subjecting your stainless steel or carbon steel sample to uniaxial tension until the point of failure, SGS MSi’s steel strength testing determines:
- Peak stress
- Yield strength
- Elongation
- Reduction of area
- Ductility under stress
