Here are ultimate tensile strengths for 3 types of silk from three different species of silk worm:
Atlas: 29,000 psi [200 MPa]
Mori: 94,000 psi [650 MPa]
Trifasciata: 87,000 [600 MPa]
I found these values in this paper:

I also found tensile data for some spider silk. This paper studied their best estimate of the species of spider that would give the highest tensile values: C. Darwini from Madagascar
C. Darwini: 268,000 psi [1850 MPa]
I found these values and a discussion in:

no iron has any tensile strength
Liquids do not have tensile strength. The equivalent property is viscosity.
Ultimate Tensile Strength is the (BHN*500)
Heating a metal decreases the tensile strength and increases ductility
YIELD STRENGTH 242 N/sqmm TENSILE STRENGTH 440~520 N/sqmm
spider silk's tensile strength (per unit of density) is about ten times that of steel cable.
Tensile strength annealed 207
no iron has any tensile strength
A rope is made out of many weak strands, woven together to provide a higher tensile strength. If you did the same using a large amount of spider silk, you would have a silk rope with a higher tensile strength than not only a regular rope, but also steel cable.
The tensile strength of concrete is 10% of it's compressive strength.
Silk fibers have a unique structure that weakens when it absorbs water, causing the fibers to swell and lose their strength. The hydrogen bonds in the proteins of silk are disrupted by water molecules, leading to decreased tensile strength compared to when the fibers are dry.

Tensile strength of Fe410Wa is 410 Mpa Min
Liquids do not have tensile strength. The equivalent property is viscosity.
Tensile strength was discovered by Leonardo Da Vinci in the 1800s.
You mean tensile strength. Different steels have different tensile strengths. The way they are made (drawn, cast, forged, etc.) is critically important to the tensile strength. By the way--steel is more important for its stiffness than its tensile strength.
The tensile strength of JB Weld is approximately 3960 PSI.
