Extensometer

General purpose strain gage extensometers for axial tensile, compression, and cyclic testing. Gauge lengths from 10 to 90mm (and 0.5 to 2 inches) and full scale measuring rages from 5% to 100% strain.

These extensometers are designed for testing a wide range of materials, including metals, plastics, composites and ceramics. All will perform both tension and compression strain measurement. The dual flexure design makes them very rugged and insensitive to vibrations, which permits higher frequency operation.

Standards

ISO 6892-1, 527-2, 527-4, 527-5, 10113

ASTM E8, E9, D3039, D638, A370, D3552, E517, E646

Small profile and ultra-light weight, these units are appropriate for testing small and delicate samples yet rugged enough for daily use on standard specimens. Ideal for strain measurement of wire specimens, sheet materials, and standard ASTM or ISO specimen geometries. Excellent for low and high cycle fatigue testing.
