Polymer Tensile Testing Services
TENSILE TESTING SERVICES FOR POLYMERS, COMPOSITES, AND PLASTICS
IMR's performs tensile testing on polymers and composites in a climate controlled lab to ASTM, ISO and manufacturer specifications. We can condition your sample prior to testing. IMR has an array of tensile testing load frame capacities from 1 lb. up to 27,000 lbs. for mechanical testing, using a wide variety of grips and extensometry. If needed, we employ waterjet cutting methods to create tensiles from provided sample materials.
IMR performs a large variety of physical, mechanical, and chemical testing methods to help manufacturers in the aerospace, transportation, and medical device industries verify material properties for critical applications.
