EN 2562 – Flexural test (parallel to fibre direction) for unidirectional carbon fibre composites

EN 2562 · EN standard

EN 2562 is the aerospace-series test method for the flexural properties of unidirectional carbon-fibre-reinforced plastics. To match this to your program, talk with our team.

What EN 2562 Covers

It determines the flexural strength and modulus of UD carbon laminates under the aerospace framework, where fiber-direction bending performance is critical.

How the Test Is Run

A UD carbon bar is loaded in bending at a controlled rate until failure, and flexural strength and modulus are calculated from the load-deflection response.

Why It Matters

Flexural data supports aerospace composite qualification; a rigid fixture and accurate deflection measurement are essential.
