Description
An extensometer is a device that is used to measure small/big changes in the length of the sample under test. It is useful for stress-strain measurements. Depr up on the type of tests the extensometer is chosen.
Clip-on Extensometer - These are clipped onto a specimen (hence the name "clip-on" extensometer) before carrying out a tensile test. These devices are used for applications where extremely high precision is required over a relatively small extension (a few mm).
High Elongation Extensometer -
Designed for measurement of higher extensions on plastics, rubbers, elastomers, cellular plastics, thin sheeting and films showing maximum forces higher than approximately 20 N. The special design of the gripper arms of the extensometer releases the specimen at break especially for testing of rubbers and elastomers showing a tendency to wrap around the sensor arms at failure.
