The use of this standard guarantees that the specimens used in the testing of aluminum and magnesium alloys have been prepared in a manner that ensures that properties like tensile strength, yield strength, and elongation can be measured correctly.

It should be noted that the system includes an optional cutting knife that can also be used to prepare specimens in compliance with ASTM B557 requirements. As a result, the specimens’ dimensions and condition are guaranteed to meet the requirements of the standard, enabling reliable and consistent testing results to be obtained. Compatibility with ASTM B557 makes the NG-T-Press M Series a valuable tool for laboratories engaged in testing and analyzing aluminum and magnesium alloy mechanical properties.
