Hi, I'm living in a developing country where the 'professional' textile merchants have never heard of the words 'Denier' or 'Tensile strength'. Thus, I've been struggling to find the material I need for a little project, but was happy to stumble across this video. I think I can test my own material (roughly) by simply incrementally loading a sample with weights until it fails, right? In this video, I heard it said that 50mm width was a standard for this type of test. Is there a specific or minimum length, also? Furthermore, it was mentioned that both directions are tested 5 times -- are the results added together and divided by the number of tests (10), or is there any need to weight ('scuse the pun) the final result -- e.g. 60% of weft + 40% of warp? Thanks for posting the video. J
width is 50 mm, length is according to your machine.All results must be divided by their quantity. If have any questions about testing of fabrics, you can contact to me
Hey sir Jonathan! I'm also doing a project right now that needs to determine tensile strength but we don't have this machine in our area. How did you conduct your tensile strength test manually?
Looks like a quality product! I will check out your website.

Are you following any ASTM Standard for this method ? .
thanks your video so much.
