Gage length extenders make it easy to modify an existing extensometer to measure strain on non-standard gage length specimens.
Key benefits
- Travel of the extensometers is not affected by the addition of extenders, but the strain measuring range will be reduced.
- Each extender/extensometer combination requires separate calibration.
Applications
- Tension
- Compression
- Fatigue
Test Specimens
- Metals
- Plastics
- Polymers
- Rubber
- Composites
