ASTM F383 describes a method for static bend and torsion testing of intramedullary rods for the determination of bending strength, bending rigidity, and torsional rigidity.
By means of our static and torsion testing expertise and modular product design, we will help find the solution that is right for you. Give our test engineers a call today for help configuring the best test machine and accessories according to ASTM F383.
Recommended Test Machine
Forces up to 5 kN (1,125 lbf)
Low force tabletop systems
Tests at speeds up to 2,500 mm/min (100 in/min)
Best for high travel or high elongation test requirements
