Global and U.S. Four-Point Bend Fixtures Market Report, Published by QY Research.
Four-Point Bend Fixtures are precision mechanical testing assemblies used to evaluate the flexural strength, stiffness, and fracture behavior of materials such as metals, ceramics, polymers, and composites. In this setup, the specimen is supported at two outer points while load is applied at two inner points, creating a uniform bending moment between them. This design eliminates shear stress influence, allowing for highly accurate flexural characterization under controlled conditions. Commonly constructed from hardened steel, aluminum, or titanium, these fixtures are compatible with universal testing machines (UTMs) and servo-hydraulic test systems, supporting standards like ASTM C1161, ASTM D790, and ISO 14125. Their modular design enables easy adjustment of span lengths, loading noses, and support rollers for a wide range of material dimensions and strengths.https://www.qyresearch.com/reports/5055412/four-point-bend-fixtures

Installation Location
Mounted on servo-hydraulic fatigue testing systems.
Calibrated for high-temperature and cyclic loading conditions.
Configured for multiple span adjustments to accommodate varying sample geometries.
Purpose
Ensures uniform bending stress distribution for accurate material failure data.
Supports qualification of advanced ceramics under mechanical fatigue.
Provides repeatable and precise test conditions compliant with ASTM standards.
Effect
Improved test reproducibility by 22% compared to three-point fixtures.
