JIS Z 2248 Bend Test for Metallic Materials

← Back to all standards

JIS Z 2248 is the Japanese Industrial Standard for bend testing of metallic materials, evaluating bendability and surface soundness. To match this to your program, talk with our team.

What JIS Z 2248 Covers

It bends a metal specimen around a former to a specified angle and assesses the tension surface for cracking, the JIS equivalent of the international bend test.

How the Test Is Run

The specimen is bent in a fixture around a former of defined diameter, then examined for cracks on the outer surface to confirm the required bendability.

Why It Matters

Bend testing is a quick ductility acceptance check for metal products; a rigid fixture and correct former size are essential.
