Rubber, elastomers & foams

Rubber Testing Machine

Filter by test type, industry or standards body, or search a designation directly. Where a method has an equivalent under another body, both are shown.

ASTM D1414

Tensile

Testing of rubber O-rings (tensile strength, elongation using spool fixtures).

ASTM D1871

Peel & adhesion

Adhesion of single-strand bead wire to rubber (tyre bead construction).

ASTM D2632-adjacent note

Tensile

Resilience, flexometer and DeMattia flex tests require dedicated instruments and are companions to UTM testing.

ASTM D3574

Tensile

Flexible cellular materials — slab, bonded and molded urethane foams (IFD, CFD, tensile, tear, compression set).

ASTM D395

Compression

Compression set under constant force — fixture loading via UTM.

ASTM D412

Tensile

Tension testing of vulcanized rubber and thermoplastic elastomers (dumbbell and ring specimens).

ASTM D413

Peel & adhesion

Adhesion of rubber to fabric or flexible substrate (ply separation).

ASTM D429

Peel & adhesion

Adhesion of rubber to rigid substrates (Methods A, B, C — tension and 90° peel).

Tell us the specimen, not just the standard.

Thickness, width and expected break force decide the grip as much as the method does. Send us those and we will specify the frame, the load cell and the fixture around them.
