Mean axial load to induce one millimeter of axial movement.
| Direct Loading | Indirect Loading | |
|---|---|---|
| Wires | 70.73 (+/- 0.80) | 131.19 (+/- 3.96) |
| Half Pins | 106.34 (+/- 2.78) | 205.94 (+/- 5.60) |
All values are in Newtons, and the standard deviations are given in brackets. The increased forces between wires and half-pins as well as between direct and indirect loading were significantly different (p < 0.05).
