ASTM C 565 (C-565) determines the apparatus, specimen, and procedures for the tension testing of carbon and graphite mechanical materials with a grain size smaller than 0.79 mm (1/32 in.). The values determined using this method are used for quality control testing of established grades, in the development of new grades, and in cases where relative strength quantity is of interest. TestResources provides machines, grips, equipment, and fixtures for testing in accordance with ASTM C565.
