Horizontal Tensile Tester

Introduction

A horizontal tensile tester measures tensile properties of samples under horizontal force application. It is widely used in wire, cable, and structural material testing. The system ensures stable force distribution. It solves instability in manual testing setups. By providing precise displacement and force control, it supports engineering material evaluation and product validation.

FAQ

What is the Horizontal Tensile Tester mainly used for?

The Horizontal Tensile Tester is used to determine tensile, compression, peel, bend or other mechanical properties of materials and products. It supports material selection, design verification and quality control across metals, plastics, textiles, rubber and packaging.

What standards does the Horizontal Tensile Tester comply with?

The tester is designed with reference to applicable ISO, ASTM and GB/T standards for mechanical testing and IEC 61010 electrical safety. Grips, speed and procedure must follow the relevant standard. Compliance documentation can be provided on request.

How long is the warranty period?

A 12-month warranty applies to the complete equipment against defects in materials and workmanship. It excludes consumables, wearing components and accidental or misuse damage. Our service team handles claims against the serial number, and longer cover can be arranged.

Is the Horizontal Tensile Tester difficult to operate?

Routine operation is straightforward and is covered in the user manual, including setup, daily use and basic maintenance. Staff with basic laboratory experience can run it after a short familiarisation. We provide remote guidance and can arrange on-site training where required.

What is the typical lead time for order delivery?

Standard models require 7-30 working days. In-stock units can ship within 3-7 working days. Custom configurations or large built-to-order systems may require additional time, and we confirm the exact schedule before order confirmation.

How often should the Horizontal Tensile Tester be calibrated?

Factory calibration is included, and routine verification is recommended every 6 to 12 months using suitable reference materials. Regulated sites may require more frequent checks and documented records. Calibration support and certificates can be provided on request.

Where do we get replacement parts?

No proprietary consumable contract is required; standard parts are available from us and common laboratory suppliers. Our service team can supply a recommended parts list for the model. Most routine spares are held for quick delivery.

Are options or configurations available?

The standard model can be configured with selected accessories and operating options to suit the task. Non-standard requests are assessed before quotation so the final build is clearly defined. We confirm details before production.

Is installation and commissioning included?

The unit is delivered ready for set-up, with clear commissioning steps in the manual. We provide remote technical support during installation. For larger or regulated systems, a factory-trained engineer can attend on site on request.

What maintenance and safety points matter?

Do not exceed the load capacity, use misaligned or worn grips or stand in the test path. Use guarding and correct fixturing. Follow laboratory safety rules.
