Various test specimens are commonly machined from Silicon Carbide, CVD Silicon Carbide, Silicon Nitride, or the material you require.

MOR Bars are machined from a wide variety of materials including Alumina, Boron Carbide, and Fused Silica, and of course the material you require.

Chevron Notched test specimens are often machined from Aluminum Nitride, Zirconia, or the material of your choosing.
While materials are typically provided by our clients, we can supply most any advanced ceramic or composite material you require. To that end, we welcome a ‘materials consult’ to discuss your goals. Our 60+ years of experience make the difference. Call us at 617-628-3831 or email either [email protected] or [email protected] and Let’s Talk Materials!
