The influence of machine compliance on the standard mechanical characteristics of metallic materials is investigated. It is shown that with an increase of compliance percent elongation and reduction of area after fracture decrease by several times. At cryogenic temperatures ultimate strength can decrease to the level of yield strength due to the effect of jumplike deformation of metals.
