Specimens for astm d638 are dumbbell shaped with either a 25 mm or 50 mm gauge length.
Flat dog bone specimens can also be die cut from a plastic sheet or machined from a block.
A universal testing machine tensile testing machine is needed to perform this test.

This test method uses standard dumbell or dogbone shaped specimens under 14mm of thickness.
Versible deformation is called elastic deforma tion.
While it provides similar results to astm d638 iso 527 2 is not considered technically equivalent due to differences in specimen size and test requirements while some large multinational manufacturers test to both astm d638 and iso 527 2 most of our customers demonstrate a.
Gage length 50 mm.
4 tensile testing second edition fig.
The plastic dog bones are typically molded in a die to produce test specimens depending on the specific requirements of the applicable tensile testing standards.
Though astm d638 measures many different tensile properties the following are the.
An absolute accuracy of 10 μm for a 50 mm gauge length and relative accuracy within 0 5 are required by astm d638 for measuring the tensile modulus of elasticity.
It is conducted on a universal testing machine also called a tensile testing machine at tensile rates ranging from 1 to 500 mm min until the specimen fails yields or breaks.
Astm d638 is performed by applying a tensile force to a sample specimen and measuring various properties of the specimen under stress.
