The model 25ST is designed for testing the tension, compression, flexure, and shear strength of materials and components. Its robust construction incorporates high-quality materials and components, upholding our reputation for superior performance, ease of use, and long-term durability.
A wide selection of loadcells with varying capacities ensures accurate load measurements, from the smallest specimens to those reaching the machine’s full capacity. With the addition of specimen grips, strain measurement instrumentation, and Tinius Olsen’s Horizon software, the system becomes a complete and powerful testing solution.
