Technical data

Shouldered test bar according to ASTM D638 Type 4 for tensile measurements

The cutting-die unit "ASTM D638 Type IV 'consists of a cutting blade and spring-loaded down holders. The cutting blade is made of powder-metallurgic knife steel and thereby guarantees an extreme lifetime. The blade is transversally sharpened on both sides, which results in vertical cut lines of an exact specimen cross section.
