ISO 178 Flex Test Equipment - Plastics Bend Tester, Test Machine, 3 Point Bend Test fixtures, Extensometers, Chamber / Oven

CALL 800 430 6536 FOR APPLICATIONS SUPPORT – ISO 178 3 point bend test is used for determining flexural properties, flexural strength, and stiffness of reinforced and unreinforced plastics. Our mechanical test machines are application engineered to fit requirements, including special flex or bend test fixtures, temperature chambers, and test software. Any TestResources compression tester or universal test machine may be equipped to perform a constant rate of extension (CRE) compression test using standard 3 point flex test fixtures. The test requires measuring load and strain, or head travel of the test head. Load and deflection data can be translated into a stress-strain curve, and flexual properties. Physical properties of many materials (especially thermoplastics) vary with temperature, so ovens or chambers commonly used.
