Force Tester Sets the Seal of Quality at British Gaskets

British Gaskets, a major manufacturer of gaskets and sealing products have chosen a Mecmesin MultiTest 10-i force testing system to perform material testing on their rubber and ploymer materials for quality control purposes.

Slinfold, UK (PRWEB) October 4, 2008 -- British Gaskets, a major manufacturer of gaskets and sealing products have chosen a Mecmesin MultiTest 10-i force testing system to perform quality control assessments on their supplied materials.

The MultiTest 10-i is used to conduct tensile tests to find the elongation limit and tensile strength of the rubber and polymer materials, with reference to BS 903-A2:1995. Rubber dumbell samples are placed between 2 spring loaded fold grips and stretched until the material breaks. The MultiTest 10-i, driven by Mecmesin's powerful Emperor™ software provides fully automated control of all test parameters and the test results are displayed graphically within the software, showing clearly at what point the material breaks during the test. British Gaskets chose the MultiTest 10-i as a cost effective alternative to outsourcing their materials testing process.

Michael Hubbard, Business Quality Manager at the British Gaskets Group said "We use the Mecmesin MultiTest 10-i system to perform regular quality control tests to guarantee the quality of our supplied materials. Mecmesin provided us with a cost-effective solution to our needs and exceptional customer service. I would have no hesitation in recommending them to other companies with materials testing requirements."
