About Element
Critical to understanding and preventing product failures, stress rupture and creep test methods provide valuable insights into the effect of long term stress on materials. Element performs standard and elevated test methods for a variety of materials, including metals, composites and plastics.
Stress rupture testing and creep tests are specialized mechanical testing services that provide manufacturers with critical data about their product's performance over time. During testing, a material is held under a definite constant load for a given period of time, at up to 1800°F, until failure occurs. Our experts then analyze the results to provide important data about physical and thermal stress over extended periods.
Our Stress Rupture and Creep Test Services
With accreditation including ISO and Nadcap, Element is committed to providing the highest quality stress rupture and creep test services to clients across many sectors. Our stress rupture testing and creep testing laboratories are continuously growing to meet the needs created by new and advanced materials. Element laboratories are also fully supported by experienced in-house machine shops that provide precise specimen preparation and fixture fabrication on all specimen and material types.
