Breaking Strength/Ultimate Strength:

Breaking Strength is the average force at which the product, in the condition it would leave the factory, has been found by representative testing to break, when a constantly increasing force is applied in direct line to the product at a uniform rate of speed on a standard pull-testing machine. Breaking Strengths, when published, were obtained under laboratory conditions that are almost always impossible to duplicate in actual use.
