Mechanical tests

The PolyTech tensile testing demonstrates how materials react under influence of different kinds of tension. We provide our customers with the facts needed to find the right material for a specific solution in any challenging environment.

We offer testing of four kinds of tension:

GENERAL

• ISO 527 part 1, 2 and 3
  Plastics – Determination of tensile properties
  Part 1: General principles
  Part 2: Test conditions for moulding and extrusion plastics
  Part 3: Test conditions for films and sheets

PEEL TEST

• ASTM D 3330
  Standard test method for peel adhesion of pressure-sensitive tape
• ISO 4578
  Adhesives – Determination of peel resistance of high-strength adhesive bonds – Floating-roller method

SHEAR TEST

• ASTM D-1002
  Standard test method for apparent shear strength of single-lap-joint adhesively.
  Bonded Metal Specimens by Tension Loading (Metal-to-Metal)

TEAR TEST

• ASTM D-624
  Standard test method for tear strength of conventional vulcanized rubber and thermoplastic  elastomers

• ISO34
  Rubber, vulcanized or thermoplastic – determination of tear strength
