Mechanical Testing Services for Aerospace & Oil & Gas
Accredited Mechanical Testing with Precision and Speed
At AADFW, we provide accredited mechanical testing services designed to ensure the strength, durability, and compliance of critical materials. For aerospace, oil & gas, and other high-performance industries, reliable testing isn’t optional—it’s essential. That’s why engineers, QC managers, and compliance officers trust AADFW for precise results delivered faster than other labs.
Why Mechanical Testing Matters
Mechanical testing verifies that metals and materials meet the demanding standards of safety, compliance, and performance required in aerospace, oil & gas, defense, and manufacturing. From ensuring weld quality in pipelines to validating fatigue strength in aircraft components, these tests give engineers the data they need to keep projects safe, efficient, and mission-ready.
Our Mechanical Testing Services
We offer a full range of accredited mechanical tests to evaluate material behavior under various conditions.
- Bend Testing – Confirms ductility and the ability of a material to withstand bending without cracking.
- Drop Weight Tear Test(link) – Measures material toughness and resistance to brittle fracture under sudden impact.
- Flexural Testing(link)–Determines strength and flexibility of metals under bending stress.
- Charpy Impact Resistance(link) – Evaluates impact toughness to ensure reliability in harsh operating conditions.
- Hardness Testing(link) – Assesses resistance to deformation and wear for long-term durability.
- Micro Hardness(link) – Provides localized hardness measurements for coatings, welds, and thin sections.
- Shear Testing(link) – Determines shear strength of joints and fasteners critical in aerospace and oilfield assemblies.
- Tensile Testing –Measures material strength, ductility, and elasticity underapplied load.
- Abrasion Testing(link)–Evaluates wear resistance for components exposed to friction and harsh environments.
- Adhesion Testing(link)–Confirms the bond integrity of coatings, weld overlays, and surface treatments.
- Torsion Testing(link)–Assesses strength and behavior of materials under twisting forces.
- Elevated Temperature Testing(link)–Measures performance and reliability of metalsunder extreme heat.
