Chatillon ML-1997 Self-Tightening Fixture for Wire and Cord
The
ML1997 is a single fixture used for tensile tests on insulated wire,
cord, stranded cable and other similar products. The fixture consists
of two blocks. The smaller block is spring loaded. The test sample is
held between the smaller block and wrapped around the larger block. The
opposite end of the sample is held by some other gripping mechanism.
Capacity:
450 lbf (2 kN)
Applications:
Used
for tensile testing of insulated wire, cable and cord. The specimen is
pulled to break and the relationship is recorded between force and
extension. The test also determines other mechanical properties
including:
- Elongation
- Maximum Load
- Percentage Elongation
- Stress
- Extension
- Tensile Strength
- Percentage Yield Point Extension
- Yield Stress
Packaging:
Single fixture.
