Bend test machines are typically universal testing machines specifically configured to evaluate material ductility, bend strength, fracture strength, and resistance to fracture. Bend tests tend to be associated with ductile metals and metal products. Bend test equipment and test procedures are similar to flexure test equipment. Flexure tests are commonly associated with brittle materials including plastics, polymers, composites, glass and ceramics. "Bend test" and "flexure test" terms are used interchangeably in the testing industry. A bend tester is configured to your requirements by our application engineers with a three or four point bend test fixture, the correct controller, and a deflectometer if you would like to measure sample deflection directly and accurately.

Get started configuring your bend test machine by choosing a series of universal test machines based on the maximum force required for your test application:
