Ray-Ran Environmental Stress Cracking Apparatus

Ray-Ran Environmental Stress Cracking Apparatus

Manufactured by Ray Ran

The Ray-Ran Environmental Stress Cracking Apparatus is used for testing the impact of environmental factors such as acids, detergents, oils, soaps, and wetting agents on ethylene plastics.

Designed in accordance with ASTM D1693, this reliable apparatus is extremely cost-effective and simple to use.

Test samples are subjected to a predetermined bending stress and then exposed to different environments to see if they exhibit any mechanical defects by cracking, perfect for testing samples before production or final design processes.

  • Integrated temperature bath is fitted with a digital temperature controller, heater, and thermometer that accurately maintains the test temperature, usually 50°C or 100°C± 0.5°C.
  • A stirrer motor system is fitted to ensure temperature stability within the bath.
  • Built-in electronic timer (HR:MIN:SEC) monitors the duration of the test.
  • Rubber stoppers to seal the tubes.
  • Test sample specimen handles in either stainless steel or brass (optional) are also supplied for each tube.
  • Specimen holder is designed to maintain a constant stress on the mid-section of the test samples with up to 10 specimens fitted into a specimen holder at one time.  
  • Product user manual and CE declaration certificate included.
  • 1 year return to base warranty.

Tooling Accessories

Tooling accessories for our environmental stress cracking testing instrument include:

  • Sample cutter  — 38mm x 13mm
  • Sample nicking jig  — used to make a controlled imperfection in the test sample.
  • Sample bending clamp  — used to induce a concentrated stress in the sample.
  • Sample transfer tool — used to move test samples from the bending clamp into the specimen holders.

Applications
