Single Column Tensile Tester / Universal Testing Machine

We pride ourselves on providing exceptional customer service from the initial enquiry right through the life of the Tensile Tester. Our highly experienced engineers will help you select the most suitable machine, grips and fixtures, for your test needs whether you plan to only use it for one test type or 20 different ones. Extensometers can also be supplied by AML.

See our larger twin column Tensile Testers here which are 10 kN to 200 kN.

Most Tensile Testers can be delivered and installed in under 1 week.
