Instron tension testers, or pull testers, are used to determine the tensile strength of various materials from metals to plastics. These tensile testing systems utilize various technologies to apply a range of tensile forces. Standard tensile forces can be applied with an electromechanical tensile tester while higher tension loads require a static hydraulic tensile system. Dynamic systems are a good fit for customers looking to perform fatigue tests as well as static tension tests.
