Compression Attachments

An attachment for compression test is a jig for measuring pressing force (compressive strength). Combined with a force gauge, a compression test jig can be used as a measuring equipment for easy hand-held compression test. Or, by combining a force gauge and a test stand, it can be used as a desktop compression tester.

There are various types of compression tests, such as pressing the entire sample, strength test by pressing one point, bending test, and sticking test. To accommodate such a wide variety of compression test methods and samples, we offer an extensive lineup of compression test jigs.

Inform us the purpose of the test and the sample to be measured, and we will assist you in the selection of the right jig. We also offer custom-made compression test fixtures with larger or smaller dimensions, special shapes, and so on. Contact us for more information.

For details, see the below product list.

Also check a collection of compression test examples.
