Taber Abrasion Tester 5155 (Double-Head)

Introduction
Taber abrasion tester is used to assess the wear resistance, such as measuring its quality loss, loss of thickness and light transmittance. Make the test piece by the standard cutter. Used the prescribed grinding wheel with a certain weight to wear. Remove the specimen after the specified rotation number, observe the weight difference before and after the test.
 
Application
Mainly used for the wear tests of suitcases, carpets, cardboard, clothing, glass, plastic coating, tiles, metal coating, paint, varnish, decorative flakes, high pressure sheet, plastic, textiles, flexible floor mats, traffic paint, anodized, electronic components, decorative panels, wax, labels, leather, dental materials, automotive interior ornaments, resins, furniture and so on.
