Tensile Strength

The tensile strength test provides data on fabric stretch, elongation, and tear. This test
method is described in ASTM Standard D-1682-64 for breaking load and elongation of
textile fabrics.
Tensile strength varies, depending on fabric type and weight. Synthetic fabrics generally
tend to stretch or show greater elongation than natural fabrics. Glass materials usually
have high tensile strengths. The tensile test, used in combination with theMullen burst test
to compare strengths of new and used bags, can indicate the deterioration in strength of
used bags.
