Compression test kit (shear loading), IITRI version

Applications: The compression test kit is used for testing fiber composites to ASTM D3410. Function description: The compression test kit is based on the wedge clamping principle. The kit consists of the following components: upper holder, specimen grip bodies, 3 sets of wedge jaws, setting gauge with centering spigot. A centering aid allows for exact alignment of the specimen with the wedge jaws. The clamped specimen plus wedge jaws are inserted into the lower specimen grip body. The upper specimen grip body is inserted into the upper holder. The parts of the device are moved together and engage with each other. Centering bolts ensure alignment of the upper grip to the lower grip. Advantages: Centering aid for alignment of the specimen For compression forces up to 220 kN Wide temperature range of -70 to 300 °C No machining of the test specimen face necessary
