Case study
Syringe tube pull-off testing
Customised engineering example
Pull-off tensile tests require careful gripping of the separating parts in order to avoid distorting them and therefore artificially weakening the joint.

Fundamentals of Adhesion (Peel) Testing
There is a reason people reach for Duct Tape as a fix for almost everything – Adhesion Strength. From busted pipes to ripped furniture, the preference for a solution that “does not easily peel off” is the guiding principle for manufactures.

Tensile Testing for Wiring Harness Connections
The only way of really knowing the strength of a crimped terminal is to pull it. This can reveal production problems, where strand nicks, incorrect crimp height, or effects from changes in terminal supply, may not be clearly apparent.
