The test piece shall be affixed between two well-centred and rigidly secured cemented carbide anvils with a hardness not less than 1 800 HV. These contact surfaces shall be perpendicular to the loading axis and parallel to each other within 0,5 µm/mm. An example of a suitable anvil is given in Figure 1. 7 Test piece 7.1 The dimensions of the test piece shall conform to Figure 2. The end faces and the cylindrical surfaces of the enlarged ends shall be ground. Other surfaces should not be ground. (Grinding or polishing may affect the result of the test.) 1) 7.2 The minimum diameter of the test piece shall be measured with an accuracy of ±0,02 mm. 8 Procedure 8.1 Rate of stress increase The rate at which the load is applied shall be as unifor m as possible, and any changes in this rate shall be made gradually and without shock. The rate shall not exceed 8 000 N/s, corresponding approximately to 100 N/(mm 2 × s). 8.2 Determination of proof stress 8.2.1 The proof stress, for example the 0,2 % proof stress, is determined according to Figure 3. This method is based on the fact, valid for almost all metals, that if a load is removed after the elastic limit, D, has been exceeded, the load-compression curve will follow a linear path that is roughly parallel to the loading curve below the elastic limit. 8.2.2 Determination of proof stress using the graphic intersection method is carried out as follows. 8.2.2.1 Apply a pre-load not greater than that required to keep the test piece positioned properly in the machine....
