Cable Insulation Tensile and Elongation Tester for Wires

Benchtop tensile tester with self-tightening roller grips for tensile strength and elongation at break of cable insulation and sheath dumbbells, before and after oven ageing. Used by PVC and XLPE cable makers.

Specification

Dumbbell specimens cut from insulation are pulled at 250 mm/min and tensile strength and elongation at break are computed. Ageing in oven before test is used to confirm cable life under heat.
