An Izod test consists of impacting a specimen in a cantilever bending mode while the fixed end is clamped in a vice. This method gives a higher stress than a Charpy test, but may require a controlled clamping force for good repeatability. The manual vice can be tightened using the optional torque wrench (C-7610-204), while the clamping force can be adjusted using the lever or pneumatically-operated vices. Instrumented hammers are available and, when combined with a DAS and VisualIMPACT software, will provide load-displacement data for the test. IZOD VICES POLYMERS Catalog Number
