The ability of a material to handle pressure or force applied perpendicular to its surface without breaking is known as its bursting strength. A Bursting Strength Tester is used to measure and assess this attribute in sectors including packaging, textiles, and leather where material integrity is crucial. Effective Lab digital bursting strength tester consists of several key components, including pressure gauges, hydraulic pumps, clamping rings, and specimen holders. In a test, the specimen is firmly clamped between two circular clamping rings, and pressure is increased incrementally until the material breaks. The bursting strength—which is often expressed in terms of kilopascals (kPa) or pounds per square inc...

Effective Lab digital bursting strength tester consists of several key components, including pressure gauges, hydraulic pumps, clamping rings, and specimen holders. In a test, the specimen is firmly clamped between two circular clamping rings, and pressure is increased incrementally until the material breaks. The bursting strength—which is often expressed in terms of kilopascals (kPa) or pounds per square inch (PSI)—is the pressure at which this takes place. Regular calibration and maintenance of bursting strength testers are essential to ensure accurate and reliable test results. This helps maintain the testing equipment's integrity and extends its lifespan.
