One of the more frequent questions we receive is: I am tapping a ¼-20 UNC 2B internal thread with an “H13” tap, what gage do I need to inspect the threaded holes in my parts after tapping?
Quality materials are the route to quality products. For a product to be fit-for-purpose and meet legislative and commercial requirements it must check several boxes.
Advanced 3D digitalization technologies offer a solution with a modernized NDT alternative that saves time and money and unlocks access to more information in a single measurement session.
Whether you are an OEM testing an airframe or a third tier supplier testing high strength alloys, it is crucial to use a reliable tensile testing system that can produce repeatable results.
Tensile testing is varied in purpose and industry specific. The manner of holding the test specimen and applying the axis of tensile force is what makes the application unique and enables quality assurance at almost any point in any product's lifecycle.
Two basic types of tensile test are broadly relevant; is the test specimen strong enough to resist breakage, or is it easy to use safely and efficiently?
