The ratio, within the elastic limit, of the applied stress on a test specimen in flexure, to the corresponding strain in the outermost of the specimen.

i think it is used for only material specification not in any mechanics of material calculations. instead elastic module is used for this purpuse. meybe you are in same confusion wtih me because of in all polymer data table flexural modulus given.
