Featured Equipment

Comprehensive Materials Testing System

Includes everything needed to do tensile, compression, shear, and bending testing as well as column buckling and photoelasticity.

Materials Testing Machine

This is the assembly-only version; measures force and displacement for various materials as the materials are stretched, compressed, sheared, or bent.

Support

Many lab activities can be conducted with our Wireless, PASPORT, or even ScienceWorkshop sensors and equipment. For assistance with substituting compatible instruments, contact PASCO Technical Support. We're here to help.
