Tinius Olsen 60k Super L Hydraulic Load Frame

The Tinius Olsen 60k Super L Hydraulic Load Frame is a universal testing machine that can apply up to a 260kN force on solid samples. Fully configurable test settings and output options provide unparalleled customization for mechanical testing via the Horizon software. A variety of grips are available, which allow for compression, tension, flexural (3pt and 4pt), and wood shear mechanical testing. Users may also provide their own custom grips for other types of mechanical testing after completing a capability and safety review with MDERFH personnel.

The Tinius Olsen Hydraulic Load Frame is currently scheduled on a project-by-project basis. Please contact MDERFH to discuss availability of the instrument.
