TRANSVERSE EXTENSOMETERS
According to standards: Class 0.5 (EN-10.002-4)
IB/MFI
Axial telescopic extensometer for testing specimens or elements with a large initial gauge length (Lo up to 1,000 mm) and high travel (up to 100 mm), such as cables, chains, wire strands, ropes, slings, belts etc. Due to its special design, it can work in both vertical and horizontal materials testing machines.
The specimen clamping system, with five circular rotating knife edges arranged in a circular arc, at each clamping point, allows to follow, without any difficulty, the movement of the rotation produced in round, twisted or plaited specimens (ropes, cords, wire strands, etc), when subjected to tensile tests.
- Class 0.5 (EN-10.002-4)
- Measurement principle: Inductive
- L0: from 200 to 1,000 mm (depending on the model and options).
- Maximum travel: 20, 40 ad 100 mm (IB/MFI-20, IB/MFI-40 or IB/MFI-100 models).
- Specimen dimensions: from 3 to 35 mm diameter (optionally from 30 to 80 mm diameter).
- Activating force: 100 cN.
- Weight: 700 to 800 or 1,000 g respectively (standard models).
IB/MFHT 
Axial extensometer for high temperatures with aluminium oxide measuring arms (up to 1700ºC).
Positioning of L0 by contact of the arms with the specimen with reduced contact pressure (from 50 to 200 cN).
- Class 0.5 (EN 10.002-4).
- Standard gauge length 10 – 15 – 20 – 25 – 30 – 40 – 50 – 60 – 70 – 80 – 90 and 100 mm selected by the user.
- Maximum travel: 3, 8 or 10 mm depending on the length of the arms.
- Activating force 3 - 10 cN
IB/3555
Clip on extensometer, up to 540º C, without any cooling.
This extensometer has been designed to be used directly on specimens exposed to high temperature (up to 540º C) without any cooling. It is specifically designed to work inside environmental chambers, from temperatures slightly above room temperature to 540º C.
It can be only used at particulary dry environments provided that no moisture is absorbed.
