DIN 53857 Textile Tests - Textile Fabrics - Simple Strip Tensile Test on Fabrics and Woven Tapes

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of DIN 53857 testing. Tensile testing of textiles provides strength and elongation properties for both natural and artificial materials such as cotton, carbon, polyester, nylon, glass and graphite.

Tensile testing can be performed in many forms, including textiles, single tapes, yarns, woven, woven, knitted and nonwoven fabrics. Most textile fabric tensile tests are performed either as a grip test to eliminate edge effects or as a strip test including edge effects.

For grip testing, the grips clamp a fabric sample to the center using jaws smaller than the sample width. For a strip test, the grips clamp a strip of fabric using jaws wider than the sample width. For both tests, hold the sample at the ends of the sample length.

Machines for textile tensile testing are typically low force, high elongation, constant elongation or load ratio and tabletop systems. While the testing machine may seem like the most important factor for testing with flexible materials, it is important to consider the movement of the grips and clamping fixtures.
