flattening / Flaring / Proof load test

Flattening Test

The flattening test is a mechanical procedure used in the testing of metals to determine a material's ductility and resistance to deformation. On pipes, tubes, or other cylindrical metal objects, it is frequently performed.

Flaring Test

The flaring test, often referred to as the flare test or flareability test, is a mechanical procedure used in the testing of metals to evaluate the ductility and formability of metal tubes and pipes, especially those used in the automotive, aerospace, and hydraulic industries.

Proof Load Test

The purpose of the proof load test, a type of mechanical test used in metal testing, is to ascertain the maximum force that a metal fastener or structural component can sustain without permanently deforming or failing.
