This precision is critical for standards-based testing where even small sample inconsistencies can affect GSM, tensile, friction, bursting, or compression test results.
Engineered for ultimate accuracy and repeatability, IDM Sample Cutting Dies is the definitive laboratory standard for specimen preparation.
Designed to meet the stringent requirements of international testing bodies, this versatile die ensures clean, defect-free samples for critical tensile and material property evaluations.
Built for Longevity. Fabricated from premium-grade, wear-resistant steel, the Cutting Die maintains its razor-sharp edge through high-volume testing, guaranteeing consistent sample dimensions and reliable data every time.
Whether you are testing standard vulcanized rubber, high-performance thermoplastics, or electric cable sheathing, the cutting die delivers flawless compliance across a diverse range of global standards:
-
ISO 37 Type 2 - Rubber, vulcanized or thermoplastic — Determination of tensile stress-strain properties
-
ISO 527-2 Type 5A - Plastics — Determination of tensile properties — Part 2: Test conditions for moulding and extrusion plastics
-
AS 1145 Type 5A - Determination of tensile properties of plastics materials
-
JIS K6251 Type 6 - Type 6 Specimen Die
-
