Push pull testing is normally conducted to establish the strength of the fixings are between a typical bolt and concrete.

Calibrated push pull force gauges are used to measure mechanical load testing strengths of the fixings.

Regardless of the type of bonding material used, it is important to note that testing for bonding strength is an universal principle.

Push pull testing and tensile strength testing is normally performed because many factors which impinge upon proper bonding of materials. The biggest concern is that some of these factors may go unnoticed especially when inspection is only carried out visually. Some of these factors are: degraded strength of the bonding material caused by low temperature, frost, or when water infiltrates into the joining compound. Another cause of insufficient bonding strength is as a result of smooth side walls.

The overall integrity of a whole set of fixings lose in strength so as to loose the integral strength of the structure due to the essential bonding materials being weak. Ultimately, this may result in construction failures leading to disastrous results. Push pull testing means early detection of such problems. Because of this, constructors are able to fix faults. Early fault finding reduces future problems. It also helps to add to the assurance of any fixings overall strength.

Push pull testing can be carried out either on large scale or a smaller intensive scale. Testing always entails maximum design load stress testing anticipated in construction as required by the standards of the industry. This is not destructive testing so the maximum loads applied as well as the sample size are decided upon by the on-site engineers.

Push Pull Testing is a sampling as a quality assurance measure. If problems have been detected then the Pull Out Testing could be used to quickly detect the severity of any problem.

Quicker Pull out testing (larger sample testing) can be applied in instances when the financial feasibility of the mass testing is far reaching and problems have been found.

Pull Out Tests are for strength testing only where the passing of maximum load tolerances are recorded only. The test methods are identical as Push Pull Tests but only the pass or failure is recorded. While the Push Pull Tests can find problems the rapid Pull Out Tests will find out the extent of any identified problems.

Iscar Offers A Brand New Family Of Slitting Cutters Applying Tang-Grip Technology And The Strength Of Sumo Tec Grades
Iscar now offers a family of high-performance slitting tools that combine the convenience and security of Tang-Grip clamping with the added durability of the new Sumo Tec insert grades. The concept, already proven successful in Tang-Grip parting tools, has now been extended to slitting cutters.

Iscar Recently Made Public Many Brand New Lines To Extend Their Family Of Milling Cutters
Iscar recently released a new family of High Speed Milling adjustable endmills and facemills that will improve milling of aluminum, non-metallics, cast iron and hardened steel. This should prove especially useful in the automotive and aerospace industries.

Iscar Adds Their Latest Innovations To A Extensive Line Of Outstanding Hole Producing Solutions
Iscar recently released several different drilling innovations to meet their customers needs. These new products are Sumocham Drill, DR-DH and Deep Drills. Drawing off of their experience Iscar has come up with new and innovative ways to increase productivity for the end user.

A Few Of The Numerous Improvements In Carbide Inserts By Iscar
Iscar is introducing a new unique milling system with tangential, clamped, butterfly-shaped LNKX carbide inserts. The butterfly-shaped insert has significant advantages compared to the current flat, square shapes. The new geometry has more cutting edges, positive rake face, reduced cutting forces resulting in higher performance.

Completely New Tools And Carbide Insert Shapes From Iscar To Better Enhance The Machining Process
Iscar is introducing Penta 34 carbide inserts with a new PB chipformer. The PB chipformer features a single cavity with a positive rake, neutral shoulder angle, and a honed edge. It is actually a C-type chipformer with a different frontal edge.

Revolutionary End Mills Coming From Iscar Can Boost Productivity While Cutting Down Costs
Manufacturers and die & mold shops can banish chatter problems in numerous milling operations with Iscar's new Chatterfree end mills. The cutters' variable-pitch flute pattern eliminates harmonic vibration, the primary source of chatter. This enables faster cutting and finer finish in rough or finish slotting, shoulder milling and cavity milling.
