This is part of MM 500 Mechanical Engineering Test Series which provides sets for various experiments on MM 500-001 Basic Panel (separately supplied) to study or demonstrate specific engineering principles. The set is supplied in plastics box.

Tensile specimen is attached to the tensile test frame where load is applied by a screw. Load is measured by a dial indicator on the spring and specimen displacement is measured by a vernier.

EXPERIMENT CAPABILITIES

• Tensile test to failure to determine elastic limit, yield and ultimate strength of specimens.

MAIN COMPONENTS AND PARTS

• Tensile test frame with calibrated spring
• Specimens of mild steel, medium carbon steel, brass and aluminium
• Dial indicator
• Vernier
• Weights            
• Plastics box
