  • Tensile, Compressive and Shear Properties
  • Temperature Capability from -300°F to 700°F
  • Impact and Compression after Impact
  • Fracture Toughness including GIC and GIIC
  • Fatigue
  • Structural Tests with multi-channel data acquisition

All data are recorded using data acquisition systems and are available to the client for importing into databases or for further analysis.
