Abstract
A test technique is presented for evaluating metal-ceramic bond strengths. The test piece consists of a four-point loaded metal beam with porcelain bonded to the central tension side of the beam. The test produced failures at predictable locations and was able to differentiate between metal surface treatments.Keywords
