Significance and Use4.1 Tension tests provide information on the strength and ductility of materials under uniaxial tensile stresses. This informationmay be useful in comparisons of materials, alloy dev

33、elopment, quality control, and design under certain circumstances.4.2 The results of tension tests of specimens machined to standardized dimensions from selected portions of a part or materialmay not totally represent the strength and ductility properties of the entire end product or its in-service

34、behavior in differentenvironments.4.3 These test methods are considered satisfactory for acceptance testing of commercial shipments. The test methods have beenused extensively in the trade for this purpose.5. Apparatus5.1 Testing MachinesMachines used for tension testing shall conform to the require

35、ments of Practices E4. The forces usedin determining tensile strength and yield strength shall be within the verified force application range of the testing machine asdefined in Practices E4.5.2 Gripping Devices:5.2.1 GeneralVarious types of gripping devices may be used to transmit the measured forc

36、e applied by the testing machineto the test specimens. To ensure axial tensile stress within the gagegauge length, the axis of the test specimen should coincide withthe center line of the heads of the testing machine. Any departure from this requirement may introduce bending stresses that arenot inc

37、luded in the usual stress computation (force divided by cross-sectional area).NOTE 1The effect of this eccentric force application may be illustrated by calculating the bending moment and stress thus added. For a standard12.5-mm 0.500-in. diameter specimen, the stress increase is 1.5 percentage poin

38、ts for each 0.025 mm 0.001 in. of eccentricity. This error increasesto 2.5 percentage points/ 0.025 mm 0.001 in. for a 9 mm 0.350-in. diameter specimen and to 3.2 percentage points/ 0.025 mm 0.001 in. for a 6-mm0.250-in. diameter specimen.NOTE 2Alignment methods are given in Practice E1012.5.2.2 Wed

39、ge GripsTesting machines usually are equipped with wedge grips. These wedge grips generally furnish asatisfactory means of gripping long specimens of ductile metal and flat plate test specimens such as those shown in Fig. 1. If,however, for any reason, one grip of a pair advances farther than the ot

40、her as the grips tighten, an undesirable bending stress maybe introduced. When liners are used behind the wedges, they must be of the same thickness and their faces must be flat and parallel.For best results, the wedges should be supported over their entire lengths by the heads of the testing machin

41、e. This requires thatliners of several thicknesses be available to cover the range of specimen thickness. For proper gripping, it is desirable that the entirelength of the serrated face of each wedge be in contact with the specimen. Proper alignment of wedge grips and liners is illustratedin Fig. 2.

42、 For short specimens and for specimens of many materials it is generally necessary to use machined test specimens andto use a special means of gripping to ensure that the specimens, when under load, shall be as nearly as possible in uniformlydistributed pure axial tension (see 5.2.3, 5.2.4, and 5.2.
