Welcome to our new Instron Community Blog hosted by Instron. It is a compilation of the freshest, brightest, most-talented minds that Instron has to offer. The world of materials science is so vast and encompasses the broadest range of industries, materials, and challenges that no one person can possibly possess all the knowledge required to be the resident expert – or master of materials science. It takes a small army behind the scenes collaborating and sharing technical know-how, experiences, and ideas to present the most accurate, relevant, and timely information to you – our readers.

We invite you to tell us who you are, share your stories and talk about your experiences. Join the Instron Community.

The Versatility of Milk Crates

About 24 months ago my car was vandalized and left resting on two milk crates ... why was it "resting" on the crates? Because my alloy wheels where missing. As much as I was shocked that someone would steal my wheels, I was more amazed that milk crates had the strength to hold up my Honda Civic ... and it got me thinking, "how much force can a milk crate take before failing?"

So we put the crates to the test - watch the video!
