Used for testing the break
resistance of terminal shanks and wire, this circular fixture has 9
slots for holding sizes from 0.8mm (1/32 in) to 6mm (1/4 in). The bottom
grip has an eccentrically mounted, self-tightening knurled roller.
Applications:
Used for testing the break
resistance of terminal shanks and wire. The specimen is pulled to break
and the relationship recorded between force at break and extension. The
test also determines other mechanical properties including:
