Overview
This part of ISO 6892 specifies a method of tensile testing of metallic materials at temperatures between +10 °C and -196 °C. This document (EN ISO 6892-3:2015) has been prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 164/SC 1 "Uniaxial testing", the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR (France), in collaboration with Technical Committee ECISS/TC 101 "Test methods for steel (other than chemical analysis)" (secretariat: AFNOR, France) within the framework of the Vienna Agreement. Regarding the German collaboration Working Committee NA 062-01-42 AA "Zug- und Duktilitätsprüfung für Metalle" ("Tensile and ductility testing of metals") at the DIN Standards Committee Materials Testing (NMP) is responsible. The fundamental change compared to DIN ISO 15579: 2002-06 is the introduction of the strain rate (including the crosshead separation rate) with narrow tolerances (plus/minus 20%) as the testing speed (method A).
