Horizontal Tensile Test Machine

Manufactured by AJT Equipment Limited

Made in Britain logo featuring a red and blue Union Jack design with grey lettering.

Horizontal tensile testing machines are especially suited for testing long items such as belts, chains, hoses, ratchet straps, and other large or long industrial test pieces. Each machine is built by AJT Equipment in the West Midlands (Black Country) — a company with over 75 years experience under their belt.

It offers a flexible base to perform all types of tests, including destructive load, elongation, static, tensile strength, and long cycle cyclic tests. Each apparatus is either based on a machine built previously or designed from the ground up to meet your exact requirements, with a focus on ensuring compliance with all machinery directive standards.

Typically, these types of horizontal universal testing machines range from 5 tonnes (11,000 lbs) to 2000 tonnes (4,400,000 lbs).
