Tensile Testing of Nelson Stud
Tensile Testing of Nelson Stud
(OP)
Would anyone happen to know if tensile testing a Nelson Stud that is only 2-1/2" in length is generally required? Or given the length of the specimen, would a hardness test be sufficient? I am unable to find a lab outside of my own that has a machine capable of holding something so small. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The best way to test something is to squeeze it, slowly, until it breaks!

Also I've seen a lot of hammer test. I was told once this was with a calibrated hammer and certified tester, ha, ha.
