Bending Test Fixtures

  Flexural goods are examined   by testing a material using a 3 or 4 point bend fixture. These bend fixtures   have 2   support spans and one or two loading nose points on top. Most three point   SSAT flex tests require that the third loading point be centered on the sample.4 point tests   require that the 2 top loading points bisect the sample into thirds or fourths.   3 point Bend Fixtures Three point Bending Test Fixtures  use center loading to bend   the sample. The 3rd point bending text   is connected directly to the top arm of the universal testing machine by use of a clevis pin adapter.   The bottom two pillars are adjustable and can integrate   samples of different length.   The coextensive   gear start   custom bend fixture is a nice solution if you are changing between multiple specimen sizes.   4 Points Bend Fixtures Four point flexural   Bending Test Fixtures have two base supports and two top loading points, where the load contact points are on the sample.
