Tensile Strength: The maximum load in tension (pulling apart) which a material 
can withstand before breaking or fracturing.

Yield Strength: The maximum load at which a material exhibits a specific 
permanent deformation

Proof Load: An axial tensile load which the product must withstand without 
evidence of any permanent set.

1MPa = 1N/mm2 = 0.2248 pounds/mm2
