Charpy / Izod Impact Testing

A Charpy impact test is a destructive method that measures a material’s toughness, ability to absorb energy and resistance to brittle fracture.

Using a pendulum arm to strike a metallic sample with a hammer from a known height, Charpy impact testing is a vital part of many material characterization programs. After impact, samples are analyzed for energy absorption and strength characteristics. 

Rajkot Metlab’s Charpy Test Reports

Charpy testing provides a wealth of material data with a single test. We help ensure that you get the most out of your materials by providing in-depth, detailed impact test reports.

Our Charpy testing reports include:

  • Ambient and low temperature (up to -196°C) testing
  • Cryogenic testing capabilities
  • Energy absorption characteristics
  • Lateral Expansion
  • Percent Shear

We can also subject materials and products to dynamic Charpy impact, measuring cushioning, g-force and impact failure mechanisms. Our labs support quality design programs with accurate results and competitive turnaround times.
