Description: Short span 4 point, fixed
span flexural test attachment comprised of base and upper units, each
with two points of contact. Upper unit
is semi articulating and all points of
contact are free to rotate to minimize
any frictional constraints.

Description: Fixed span three point
flexural test attachment comprised of
base unit with two support contact
points and one upper point of contact.

Description: Variable span three point
flexural test attachment comprised of
base unit with two support points of
contact and one upper point of
contact. Graduated scale on main body
of unit allows accurate setting of
support span.
