EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, offers precise and rapid testing services within the scope of ISO 3376 testing. This standard specifies a method for determining the tensile strength, elongation at a given load, and elongation at maximum force of leather. It can be applied to any type of leather.
ISO 3376 provides a standardized procedure for measuring the tensile strength and percent elongation of leather samples. Tensile strength refers to the maximum stress a leather sample can withstand while being stretched or pulled before breaking, and percentage elongation measures how much the leather stretches during this process.
A test piece is extended at a certain rate until the forces reach a predetermined value or the test piece breaks.
Tensile strength is determined as the maximum force applied to the sample before it breaks, and the percentage of elongation is calculated according to the change in length.
Determination of tensile strength and percent elongation is important for evaluating the mechanical properties of leather. These properties are critical for a variety of applications, including leather goods, footwear and industrial uses. Manufacturers use this information to make sure their leather products meet certain quality and performance standards.
ISO 3376 provides standardized test procedures and requirements for the measurement of tensile strength and percent elongation in leather. Organizations involved in leather production and quality control often follow this standard to accurately evaluate and report these mechanical properties.
