Testing

Swab Consulting specializes in conducting comprehensive room temperature mechanical property tests—including strength, fracture toughness, and hardness—on advanced ceramics and glasses. Utilizing state-of-the-art equipment and adhering to industry standards, we provide precise evaluations to ensure the reliability and performance of your materials. 

Our expertise encompasses various properties, such as:


  • Tensile Strength - determined indirectly using four-point, three-point or equibiaxial flexure loading while the strength of tubes can be assessed through diametral compression of c-rings


  • Compression strength - determined by uniaxially loading a dumbbell-shaped specimen to failure

Learn about Strength tests

  • Fracture toughness - obtained using a chevron notch or a controlled surface crack

Learn about Fracture Toughness Tests

  • Hardness - obtained by indenting the ceramic or glass with a pyramidal diamond (Knoop or Vickers) at varying indentation loads

Learn about Hardness Tests

By leveraging our specialized knowledge and advanced testing capabilities, we deliver actionable insights to support your material development, quality control, and failure analysis initiatives.
