Tension Attachments

A Tension Test attachment is a jig for measuring pulling force. Combined with a force gauge, a tension test attachment can be used as a hand-held measuring equipment for simple tension test. Or, by combining a force gauge and a test stand, it can be used as a desktop tension tester.

A key factor in tension test is the appropriateness of the fixture. Tension test is a broad spectrum of testing methods, including tension fracture strength test, tear test, and peel test, and the samples subjected to tension test are also diverse. Therefore, it is important to select and use the most appropriate jig for the purpose, test method, and sample to be measured.

We offer a wide variety of tension test jigs to accommodate a wide range of tension tests and samples. Inform us the purpose of the test and the sample to be measured, and we will assist you in the selection of the right fixture. We also offer custom-made tension 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 tension test examples.
