ADMET’s universal testing machines help companies in the textile industry test their fabrics, cords, yarns, ropes, and thread for breakage strength, elongation, and tear resistance. All of ADMET’s constant-rate-of-extension (CRE) and constant-rate-of-loading (CRL) machines meet or exceed ASTM D76 which covers the operating characteristics of tensile testing machines for the determination of the force and elongation properties of textile materials. Many ADMET universal testing machines are used by the textile industry because they are reliable and easy to use. We also have a large selection of tensile grips specifically designed for testing fabrics, thread, ropes and webbings.
