Rotary Rubbing Color Fastness Tester
Application
The Rotary Rubbing Color Fastness Tester is widely used in the textile printing and dyeing industry to evaluate the color fastness of printed fabrics under dry and wet rubbing conditions. It is ideal for testing printed textiles, dyed fabrics, and other surface-treated materials, providing critical data for quality control and process improvement.
Standards Compliant
ISO 105-X12: Textiles – Determination of color fastness to rubbing
AATCC 8: Colorfastness to crocking (rubbing)
Product Description
This tester is the most commonly used instrument in the textile industry for dry and wet rubbing tests, especially on printed fabrics. Key features include:
16 mm diameter friction head applying 1,143 g of pressure for consistent testing.
Reciprocating motion: The friction head rotates 1.125 cycles clockwise followed by counterclockwise rotation to simulate realistic rubbing.
Single-way operating handle for precise control.
Steel spring sample holder ensures rapid and secure specimen mounting, producing reproducible results.
Fully AATCC-compliant design for international testing standards.
