EN 6060 is an aerospace-series test method for determining the tensile single-lap shear strength of bonded joints. To match this to your program, talk with our team.
What EN 6060 Covers
It measures the shear strength of an adhesively bonded single-lap joint loaded in tension, a key property for qualifying adhesives and bonded assemblies in aerospace.
How the Test Is Run
A single-lap bonded specimen is pulled in tension so the adhesive layer carries shear until failure, and the lap-shear strength is calculated from the failure load and bond area.
