Which Tensile Tester is Best for Your Application?

  • The Model TT1 is intended for testing of specimens that will require from 4000 to 40,000 pounds of tensile load to cause fracture. In general, specimens cut from arc-welded test plates are in this range. For specimens that will have loads exceeding 40,000 pounds, such as ones from thick plate, the codes and standards allow several alternatives.
    • One is to cut large rectangular specimens lengthwise to create multiple specimens with smaller cross-sectional areas.
    • Another is to use standard round tensile specimens that have smaller areas than full-section rectangular specimens. The load required for round tensile bars is well within the limits of the Model TT1.
  • The Model TT2 is intended for testing of specimens that will require from 300 to 5000 pounds of tensile load to cause fracture. In general,  resistance-welded specimens are in this range. Also, specimens from arc-welded sheet metal can fall in this range. For specimens that will have loads exceeding 5000 pounds, the Model TT1 is the correct choice. The model TT2 is also recommended for schools that are interested in teaching the concept of tensile testing.  It is easily portable and moderately priced.
