The SSG series, widely used by plastics manufacturers, public testing institutions, and universities, meets the requirements of these plastic tensile testing standards.
SSG Series Strain Gauge Extensometers
Shimadzu’s SSG series of strain gauge extensometers are compliant with ISO, JIS, and ASTM tensile test standards, including those for plastics and metallic materials These lightweight, precision extensometers feature a wide elongation measurement range, while retaining the flexibility to measure using small gauge lengths, and support both rod and flat plate shaped specimens. Consisting of an elongation sensor and amplifier, this extensometer is suitable for use with metals and hard plastic materials, and is fastened securely to specimens with screws. Calibration using an extensometer calibrator allows the extensometer to meet JIS and ISO Class 0.5 and ASTM Class C standards for higher accuracy.
Features
-
Plastic tensile testing standards, represented by ISO 527, JIS K 7161, and ASTM D638, require high-accuracy displacement measurements.
The SSG series, widely used by plastics manufacturers, public testing institutions, and universities, meets the requirements of these plastic tensile testing standards.
-
ISO 6892 and JIS Z 2241 detail test methods for determining the tensile strength of metallic materials. Included within these standards are two control methods for loading materials until they reach their yield point: a stress-rate controlled method and a constant strain-rate controlled method using an extensometer.
