RS TENSILE PVT IN DELHI Tensile strength can be defined as the maximum stress that a material can bear before breaking when it is allowed to be stretched or pulled. Tensile strength is often referred to as ultimate tensile strength and is calculated by dividing the peak tension force the sample withstands by its cross sectional area. A tensile tester is used to measure tensile strength. A load cell is fitted to the tensile tester to measure tensile force. When the temperature of a material increases then the tensile strength, as well as bond strength, will get increased. But, beyond that, the tensile strength and the elasticity of that material will get decreases. Thus, temperature also plays an important role in changing the molecular structure of a material.
