CREEP and STRESS RUPTURE CAPABILITY

The Mechanical Testing Department at our Portland, OR facility is well equipped to perform Creep and Stress Rupture testing of a wide variety of materials to both standard and customized specifications.   A number of test frames are available, covering a broad array of load and temperature ranges. A complete in-house machine shop supports the department with precise specimen preparation and fixture fabrication. For more information on our Creep and Stress Rupture capabilities, please contact:

  • The 20,000 lb. machines are for room temperature testing only and are used for hydrogen embrittlement testing.
  • Up to 38 elevated temperature stress ruptures can be loaded at one time.
  • Up to 18 elevated temperature creep tests can be loaded at one time.
  • All specimens are single-point machined (no plunge grinding). 
  • Specimens are typically loaded within 24 hours of receiving the material.
