Flat Surface Plate for Compression Tests

Flat surface plates are common compression testing accessories that expand the lower table of the universal tester in order to test large specimens and finished objects. These plates bolt directly into the table of the universal tester and should be ordered to fit a specific capacity and model of universal tester.

Flat surface plates are categorized depending on the type of universal tester to which they are attachable: AG-X plus series standard models, AGS-X series standard models, and AG-X plus series extended width models, with a width of 975 mm (38.4 in). They also have a temperature range of 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F).

Flat surface plates for compression tests cannot be installed on universal testers with safety covers attached.
