15、on range of the testingmachine as defined in Practices E4.5.2 Gripping Devices:5.2.1 GeneralVarious types of gripping devices may beused to transmit the measured load applied by the testingmachine to the test specimens. To ensure axial tensile stresswithin the gauge length, the axis of the test spec

16、imen mustcoincide with the centerline of the heads of the testingmachine. Any departure from this requirement may introducebending stresses that are not included in the usual stresscomputation (load divided by cross-sectional area).NOTE 3The effect of this eccentric loading may be illustrated bycalc

17、ulating the bending moment and stress thus added. For a standard12.50-mm diameter specimen, the stress increase is 1.5 percentage pointsfor each 0.025 mm of eccentricity. This error increases to about 2.3percentage points/0.025 mm for a 9-mm diameter specimen and to 3.25percentage points /0.025-mm f

18、or a 6-mm diameter specimen.NOTE 4Alignment methods are given in Practice E 1012.5.2.2 Wedge GripsTesting machines usually are equippedwith wedge grips. These wedge grips generally furnish asatisfactory means of gripping long bars of ductile metal. If,however, for any reason, one grip of a pair adva

19、nces fartherthan the other as the grips tighten, an undesirable bendingstress may be introduced. When liners are used behind thewedges, they must be of the same thickness and their facesmust be flat and parallel. For best results, the wedges should besupported over their entire length by the heads o

20、f the testingmachine. This requires that liners of several thicknesses beavailable to cover the range of specimen thickness. For propergripping, it is desirable that the entire length of the serratedface of each wedge be in contact with the specimen. Properalignment of wedge grips and liners is illu

21、strated in Fig. 1. Forshort specimens it is generally necessary to use machined testspecimens and to use a special means of gripping to ensure thatthe specimens, when under load, shall be as nearly as possiblein uniformly distributed pure axial tension (see 5.2.3, 5.2.4, and5.2.5).5.2.3 Grips for Th

22、readed and Shouldered SpecimensAschematic diagram of a gripping device for threaded-endspecimens is shown in Fig. 2, while Fig. 3 shows a device forgripping specimens with shouldered ends. Both of thesegripping devices should be attached to the heads of the testingmachine through properly lubricated

23、 spherical-seated bearings.The distance between spherical bearings should be as large asfeasible.5.2.4 Grips for Sheet MaterialsThe self-adjusting gripsshown in Fig. 4 have proved satisfactory for testing sheetmaterials that cannot be tested satisfactorily in the usual type ofwedge grips.5.2.5 Grips

24、 for WireGrips of either the wedge or snubbingtypes as shown in Fig. 4 and Fig. 5 or flat wedge grips may beused.5.3 Dimension-Measuring DevicesMicrometers and otherdevices used for measuring linear dimensions shall be accurateand precise to at least one half the smallest unit to which theindividual

25、 dimension is required to be measured.5.4 ExtensometersExtensometers used in tensile testingshall conform to the requirements of Practice E83 for theclassifications specified by the procedure section of these testmethods. Extensometers shall be used and verified to includethe strains corresponding t

26、o the yield strength and elongation atfracture (if determined).5.4.1 Extensometers with gauge lengths equal to or shorterthan the nominal gauge length of the specimen (dimensionshown as “G-gauge Length” in the accompanying figures) maybe used to determine the yield behavior. For measuringelongation

27、at fracture with an appropriate extensometer, thegauge length of the extensometer shall be equal to the nominalgauge length required for the specimen being tested.FIG. 1 Wedge Grips with Liners for Flat SpecimensFIG. 2 Gripping Device for Threaded-End SpecimensB557M0726. Test Specimen6.1 General:6.1

28、.1 Test specimens shall be of the full section of thematerial whenever practical. Otherwise, machined specimensof rectangular or round cross section shall be used.6.1.2 Improperly prepared test specimens often are thereason for unsatisfactory and incorrect test results. It isimportant, therefore, th

29、at care be exercised in the preparationof specimens, particularly in the machining, to ensure thedesired precision and bias in test results.6.1.3 The cross-sectional area of the specimen should besmallest at the center of the reduced section to ensure fracturewithin the gauge length. For this reason

30、, a small taper ispermitted in the reduced section of each of the specimensdescribed in the following sections.6.1.4 Rectangular specimens shall be 12.50 mm wide inaccordance with Fig. 6 or Fig. 7 (for tubular products), andshall be of the full thickness of the material when practical.When necessary

31、, 6.00-mm wide subsize specimens as shown inFig. 6 may be used, but elongation values from such specimensare not applicable to specification requirements.6.1.4.1 Pin ends as shown in Fig. 8 may be used. In order toavoid buckling in tests of thin and high-strength materials, itmay be necessary to use

32、 stiffening plates at the grip ends.6.1.5 Round specimens shall be the standard 12.50-mmdiameter specimen in Fig. 9, except when the dimensions of theproduct make this impossible. In such cases, small-size speci-mens proportional to the standard specimen shown in Fig. 9may be used. Unless otherwise

33、specified in the productspecification, the selection of round tensile specimens shall beas specified in Table 1. Unless permitted by the productspecification, the diameter of the reduced section of thesmallest specimen used shall not be less than 4 mm for wroughtproducts and 6 mm for cast products.6

34、.1.5.1 The shape of the ends of the specimen outside of thegauge length shall be suitable to the material and of a shape tofit the holders or grips of the testing machine so that the loadsare applied axially. Fig. 10 shows specimens with various typesof ends that have given satisfactory results.6.1.

35、6 Special care is required in the manufacture and testingof smaller specimens because the effects of machining (forexample, the amount of end load applied and the amount ofheat generated) and testing (for example, eccentricity andgauge marking) variables are greater upon them than uponlarger specime

39、dth at eachend shall not be more than 1 % greater than the width at the center.NOTE 2For each of the specimens, narrower widths (W and C) may be used when necessary. In such cases the width of the reduced section shouldbe as large as the width of the material being tested permits: however, unless st

40、ated specifically, the requirements for elongation in a product specificationshall not apply when these narrower specimens are used. If the width of the material is less than W, the sides may be parallel throughout the length ofthe specimen.NOTE 3The dimension T is the thickness of the test specimen

41、 as stated in the applicable material specifications. Maximum nominal thicknesses of12.5-mm and 6-mm wide specimens shall be 12.5 mm and 6 mm, respectively.NOTE 4To aid in obtaining axial loading during testing of 6-mm wide specimens, the overall length should be as large as the material will permit

42、,up to 200 mm.NOTE 5It is desirable, if possible, to make the length of the grip section large enough to allow the specimen to extend into the grips a distance equalto two thirds or more of the length of the grips. If the thickness of 12.5-mm wide specimens is over 9 mm, longer grips and correspondi
