Anyone have any good ideas for placing a 2" gauge length clip on extensometer onto a 7/8" threaded rod for tensile testing?

You can just clip onto the thread, but if the material has high elongation you may get some twisting and some odd elongation values.

Is there any reason why you cannot test by machining a round tensile instead?
