Abstract
A pair of wire specimens supported within a transparent frame established by two sets of pulleys are interconnected between a common powered rotor and a pair of wire tensioning weights protectively enclosed by plastic sheathings. The wire specimens are simultaneously and cyclically displaced along direction changing paths through test medium during a testing operation terminated in response to rupture detected by sensing switches engaged by the weights.
