What Does UTS Stand For?
UTS stands for Ultimate Tensile Strength
Ultimate Tensile Strength (UTS) refers to the maximum stress that a material can withstand while being stretched or pulled before failing or breaking. It is a critical property in materials science and engineering, indicating the material's ability to perform under tension. UTS is typically measured in units of force per unit area, such as pascals (Pa) or pounds per square inch (psi), and is essential for selecting materials for structural applications, ensuring they can bear expected loads without failure.
