EN 10002-1 Metallic Materials, Tensile Test, Part 1: Test Method at Ambient Temperature

EUROLAB laboratory provides testing and compliance services within the scope of EN 10002-1 standard. This European standard specifies the method for the tensile testing of metallic materials and defines the mechanical properties that can be determined at ambient temperature.

Specifies supplementary recommendations for computer-controlled testing machines. It is the intention of further development by manufacturers and users based on it becoming normative in the next revision of this standard.

The shape and dimensions of the test pieces depend on the shape and dimensions of the metallic product from which the test pieces are taken. The test piece is usually obtained by machining a sample of the product or a pressed blank or casting. However, fixed section products (sections, bars, wires, etc.) as well as cast test pieces (ie for cast irons and non-ferrous alloys) can be tested without machining.

When measuring the final gauge length, special precautions should be taken to ensure proper contact between the fractured parts of the test piece. This is especially important in the case of test pieces with small cross-sections and test pieces with low elongation values.
