Metal Testing in Detail

Metal testing plays a critical role in quality assurance, material selection, failure prevention, and regulatory compliance across industries that rely on metallic components. Whether you're dealing with raw materials, welds, castings, or finished parts, accurate metal testing ensures that materials meet required specifications for strength, composition, hardness, and performance under stress.

At 2R Inspection, we offer comprehensive metal testing services combining both destructive and non-destructive techniques. Our chemical analysis services (using XRF, OES, or ICP) determine elemental composition, while our mechanical tests include tensile strength, elongation, hardness (Brinell, Rockwell, Vickers), and Charpy impact testing. We also provide metallographic analysis to examine grain structure, phase distribution, and weld quality. All testing is carried out under strict compliance with ASTM, ISO, API, and EN standards to deliver certified and traceable results. Whether for routine quality checks, supplier validation, or root cause failure analysis, 2R Inspection provides the insights and documentation you need to trust your metals — from the inside out.
