|---|
The GF543-160QTG torsion system meets the requirements on ASTM F543 for testing the torsion properties and driving torque of metallic bone screws. The system can be designed for a range of torques, with available actuators having torque ratings between 0.7 Nm (6 in-lb) and 20 Nm (177 in-lb). Reference ASTM Standard F 543, 2002, Standard Specification and Test Methods for Metallic Medical Bone Screws, ASTM International, West Conshohocken, PA, 2002.
Recommended Test Machine
160 Series Static Torsion Test Machines
2 to 5650 Nm (18 to 50,000 in-lb)
Electromechanical Gear
The 160 Series Electromechanical Torsion Test Machines are best for static and quasistatic cyclic tests. As an affordable option to torsion testing, we find the 160 Series to be a popular choice.
