Capable of being drawn out by force like a piece of elastic gum, and by its own elasticity returning, when the force is removed, to its former position. - Paley.

Elastic fluids those which have the property of expanding in all directions on the removal of external pressure, as the air, steam, and other gases and vapors. - Rankine. Elastic limit (Mech.) the limit of distortion, by bending, stretching, etc., that a body can undergo and yet return to its original form when relieved from stress; also, the unit force or stress required to produce this distortion. Within the elastic limit the distortion is directly proportional to the stress producing it. Elastic tissue (Anat.) a variety of connective tissue consisting of a network of slender and very elastic fibers which are but slightly affected by acids or alkalies. Gum elastic caoutchouc.
