Tensile testing is the
most commonly applied test method for analyzing the mechanical
properties of fabric materials. Although the direction of
applied force is always in tension, there are a variety of
tensile test methods available for capturing the most relevant
data for final product usage.
-
The strip test is a
tensile test in which the full width of the test specimen is
gripped in the tensile grip jaws of a universal testing machine.
During this test, tensile force is applied on the fabric
specimen until it ruptures.

Admet: For over 25 years, ADMET has been helping companies solve
their material testing challenges. Beginning with development of
software and controller technology for older testing machines, the
company subsequently expanded its capabilities to building high
feature testing systems and offering full system retrofits.
