Reliable Flexural Testing for Polymers and Plastics
Flexural testing is essential for evaluating the bending properties and strength of plastic and polymer materials,
especially for components that will experience bending forces during use. Our flexural testing services provide
accurate insights into how materials perform under stress, helping you ensure that your products meet durability
and performance standards. Whether you're developing new materials or troubleshooting existing designs, our testing
services help you better understand material behaviour, optimize product designs, and prevent failures.
How Flexural Testing Works
During a flexural test, a plastic or polymer sample is placed on two supports, and a load is applied at the centre
of the specimen until it bends or fractures. Using state-of-the-art testing equipment, we measure key parameters such
as flexural strength, modulus, and elongation. These results help you understand the material's ability to resist
bending or deformation when subjected to real-world forces. Our tests adhere to industry standards,
ensuring accurate and repeatable results. Whether it's for structural components, packaging, or automotive parts,
flexural testing provides critical data that helps you design stronger, more reliable plastic and polymer products.
