O44 Motorized O-Ring Test Fixture is designed for tensile strength and elongation testing of rubber O-rings and other elastomeric ring specimens using universal testing machines. Featuring motor-driven rollers, the fixture provides controlled specimen rotation during tensile testing, helping distribute contact along the O-ring and reduce localized stress concentrations.<\/p>\n
With a maximum load capacity of 10 kN (2,248 lbf) and adjustable roller rotation speeds from 1 to 17 rpm, the O44 is suitable for material characterization, quality control, product development, and laboratory testing.<\/p>\n
The fixture accommodates interchangeable rollers to suit different specimen dimensions and testing requirements. For tensile testing in accordance with ASTM D1414, the O44 is configured with 9 mm diameter rollers.<\/p>\n
Principle of Operation<\/strong><\/p>\n The O-ring specimen is positioned around two rollers mounted on opposing fixture assemblies. As the universal testing machine applies tensile force, the rollers support the ring while allowing it to elongate.<\/p>\n The motorized roller mechanism rotates the specimen during testing, helping distribute contact around the ring circumference and minimizing the effects of localized loading.<\/p>\n Interchangeable rollers allow the fixture to be adapted to different O-ring dimensions and test configurations.<\/p>\n ASTM D1414 \u2013 Rubber O-Ring Testing<\/strong><\/p>\n ASTM D1414 is a standard test method for rubber O-rings that includes procedures for evaluating their physical and mechanical properties.<\/p>\n O44-9 Motorized O-Ring Test Fixture can be used for tensile strength and elongation testing under ASTM D1414 when equipped with 9 mm diameter rollers.<\/p>\n The motorized roller design supports controlled specimen movement during elongation, helping reduce localized loading and promote consistent test conditions.<\/p>\n Testing in accordance with ASTM D1414 also requires appropriate specimen preparation, test conditions, machine settings, and data evaluation.<\/p>\n Applications<\/strong><\/p>\n Key Features & Benefits<\/strong><\/p>\n O44 Motorized O-Ring Test Fixture is designed for tensile strength and elongation testing of rubber O-rings using universal testing machines.
