What is tensile strength testing of yarn?

Yarn tensile strength testing is a method of testing the tensile strength of a yarn material when it is stressed. This type of testing typically uses a universal materials testing machine where a sample of yarn is clamped between two grips and a tensile force is applied at a speed until the yarn breaks.

During the yarn tensile strength test, the testing machine records the deformation of the yarn under different tensile forces, so as to calculate the yarn tensile strength and elongation at break and other indicators. These indicators can be used to assess the quality and performance of the yarn and to determine its suitability for a particular application.


Yarn tensile strength testing is often used to determine yarn quality. This test method can be used for all types of yarns, including natural and synthetic fibers. Yarn tensile strength testing is a very important test method in the textile and apparel manufacturing industry, as the strength and quality of the yarn has a significant impact on the quality and performance of the final product.
