ASTM A931

Tensile

Tension testing of wire ropes and strand (breaking force determination).

EN 818-1 / -2

Load–deflection & proof load

Short-link lifting chain — proof force and breaking force verification.

ISO 12215-adjacent

Shear

FRP hull laminate coupon verification per ASTM D3039 / ISO 527-4 and core shear per ASTM C393.

Load–deflection & proof load

Stud-link anchor chain cables — proof load and breaking load testing (very-high-capacity frames).

ISO 2307 / OCIMF MEG4-adjacent

Load–deflection & proof load

Mooring ropes and hawsers — linear density, breaking force and elongation.

ISO 2408

Tensile

Steel wire ropes — minimum breaking force requirements and verification testing.

Tell us the specimen, not just the standard.

Thickness, width and expected break force decide the grip as much as the method does. Send us those and we will specify the frame, the load cell and the fixture around them.
