6、ABORATORY TEST METHOD BN 121-01 3. Position the special clamp or fixture, fabricated to accommodate the test specimen in the tensile machine, onto the test specimen. The fixture should engage only the edges of the specimen and not the backing plate. 4. Fasten the upper end of the fixture into the up

Operate the tensile machine at a rate of 25 mm/minute and report the load in kg required to separate the test specimen from the backing plate. Chemicals, materials, parts, and equipment referenced in this document must be used and handled properly. Each party is responsible for determining proper use and handling in its facilities.
