About This Product
A compression testing machine applies load to a specimen held between two platens while a gauge shows the load, and it is used in materials laboratories to find the compressive strength of a specimen. In this hand operated model the hydraulic jack is fixed to the base and the lower platen rests on its ram, so loading is done by moving the lower platen upward against the self-aligning upper platen. The screw on the upper platen sets the initial clearance before loading, and the load is read from the dial gauge. The Compression Testing Machine Hand Operated can be supplied for export orders from Tanzania, Estonia, Haiti, Papua New Guinea, Sudan and North Macedonia.
Frequently Asked Questions
