High-strength steel tensile test - short specimen (Epsilon Technology - Model 3442 extensometer)

The compact Model 3442 extensometer epsilontech.co... measures strain in this tensile test through failure of AISI 1080 high strength steel. The music wire rod in this test has a 4.7 mm diameter. The extensometer may be used for determining elastic modulus, offset yield strength, ultimate elongation, and stress-strain curves. It may be left on through failure.
This miniature extensometer is especially suited for tension and compression testing in tight spaces and with short specimens. It is light weight and suited for delicate specimens. It may be used in strain control and it is fatigue-rated.
