Materials Testing Put It to the Test: Ensure Your Materials Perform as Expected
Most often, materials testing services are required to ensure that products and their component parts can perform for their intended use and endure for their expected life span. LTI, your materials testing company, can provide elemental analysis, verification of mechanical properties, examination of microscopic product features, detection of flaws and corrosion analysis. You can rely on our materials testing services to help you with material selection, verification of material quality, trouble-shooting the failure of a part or product or to meet industry and customer requirements for material certification. All results are provided in a Certified Material Test Report.
-
Chemical Analysis
Chemical analysis services determine the composition or elemental make-up of materials, and are performed at LTI by instrumental methods and classical wet chemistry. Our Chemical Analysis Lab also performs corrosion testing, humidity, passivation, density and porosity testing and RoHS compliance testing.
-
Mechanical Testing
Mechanical testing measures the strength and ductility of materials under various conditions, such as temperature, tension, compression and load. LTI can do the testing and machine your test specimens. Read "Cargo Parachute Release Can Handle the Load"

Metallurgical Analysis
Metallurgical examinations look for internal and surface defects on test specimens, which we prepare and analyze in our materials testing laboratory.
Materials Tested at LTI
Laboratory Testing is one of the leading metals testing laboratories in the USA. LTI is fully equipped and accredited to test and analyze a wide-range of specimens and metal products for many applications and industries. We also perform analytical chemistry on powdered metals, ores, ferroalloys, composites, ceramics and other materials and provide some plastics testing. Even extremely large materials, and the smallest samples can be tested or analyzed using the latest technology and state-of-the-art computerized equipment.
Accredited Materials Testing Services
Lab Testing is accredited to ISO/IEC 17025 by PRI/Nadcap (Performance Review Institute) in materials testing and nondestructive testing. Our quality system also complies with ISO 9001 and ISO 13485. All materials testing is performed in accordance with customer requirements and industry standards to ensure reliable results. Materials testing procedures conform to ASTM, ASME, ANSI, AMS and MIL specifications:
