SAE J2749 – High Strain Rate Tensile Testing of Polymers

← Back to all standards

SAE J2749 is an SAE Recommended Practice for generating tensile property data for polymer materials used in automotive applications. To match this to your program, talk with our team.

What SAE J2749 Covers

It guides how tensile data for automotive polymers is produced and reported so that results are consistent and usable across suppliers and design teams.

How the Test Is Run

Specimens are pulled under defined conditions with accurate strain measurement, and the tensile properties are recorded in the format the practice specifies.

Why It Matters

Consistent polymer tensile data supports automotive material selection and specification across the supply chain.
