Mechanical Testing

We perform a comprehensive suite of mechanical tests on metals, welds/brazed joints, tubes, springs, polymers/rubber, FRP and components. Methods follow ASTM/ISO/IS (as specified), with traceable setups, calibrated equipment, and audit-ready reports.

Uniaxial & General

• Tensile test of metallic materials – rods, plates, tubes, wires, reinforcing steel
• Tensile test at an elevated/ Hot temperature up to 1000ºC (high-temperature tensile; furnace/grips as per method)
• Load tests
• Dimensional inspection

Tubes & Hollow Sections

• Tests on Steel tubes
• Test on Tubes – Drift Test, Flattening and Crushing Test

Bending & Ductility

• Bend test for ferrous and non-ferrous material and reinforcement
• Bend & Re-bend test for reinforcement Steel

Welded / Brazed Joints

• Welded and brazed products
• PQR & WPS tests for welded test coupon. (procedure/qualification testing as per project spec)
• Evaluation of weld Joints — butt joint, fillet joint, hard facing, friction welds, stud welds, spot welds, projection welds and brazed joints
• Evaluation of quality of weld and calculating % depth of penetration

Springs & Components

• Tests on springs
• Static load test in Compression – Tests on Helical springs
• Load tests on components and sub-assemblies

Impact Toughness

• Charpy Impact Testing as per ASTM E23 /ASTM A370 from RT to -196oC
• Izod Impact Tester

Hardness & Microhardness

• Hardness Testing (Rockwell (A,B,C & Superficial), Brinell, Vickers and Micro Vickers Hardness Tester with stage micrometer for Microhardness Survey)

Sheet/Formability, Coating & Bond

• Erichssen cupping test
• Bond Test (as specified—e.g., coating/overlay adhesion or rebar-concrete bond)
• Paint sample: Puff-off Adhesion test, Cross cut adhesion test, DFT, and Pencil Hardness Tests on paint samples.

FRP / Composites

• Test on fibre reinforced glass
• FRP Material: Flexural test, Tensile test & Compression test on FRP samples
