ISO 7438 specifies a method for determining the ability of metallic materials to undergo plastic deformation in bending.
Equipment Required
The bend test shall be carried out in testing machines or presses equipped with the following devices: bending device with two supports and a former; bending device with a V-block and a former; bending device with a clamp. By means of our 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 your standard.
Recommended Test Machine
Force range of 5 kN to 600 kN (1,125 lbf to 135,000 lbf)
Adjustable test space
The most popular choice for static tension and compression tests
These dual column testers are available in both tabletop and floor standing models
Force range of 300 kN to 2,000 kN (67,500 lbf to 450,000 lbf)
The best choice for performing static tension and/or compression applications when force capacities of 300 kN (67,000 lbf) or more are needed
Includes its own grips
