STD-TE 65 Multiplex Sand/Wheel Abrasion Tester

Product Introduction

The STD-TE 65 Multiplex Sand/Wheel Abrasion Tester is designed to evaluate the abrasive wear resistance of metallic and non-metallic materials under dry or wet sand conditions. The instrument simulates low-stress scratching abrasion by pressing a test specimen against a rotating wheel while sand or slurry is introduced into the contact zone. With flexible wheel configurations and precise pneumatic loading, it provides highly repeatable and standardized wear performance data.

Application Range

The tester is suitable for:

Metals, hard alloys, cemented carbides

Thermal spray coatings and surface treatments

Plastics and engineering composites

Ceramics and wear-resistant materials

Quality control, research laboratories, mining, construction, metallurgy, and materials engineering sectors

It can perform dry abrasion, wet abrasion, and high-stress abrasion depending on the selected wheel and method.

Standards Compliance

The instrument fully meets the requirements of:

ASTM G65 – Dry Sand / Rubber Wheel Abrasion

ASTM G105 – Wet Sand / Rubber Wheel Abrasion

ASTM B611 – Abrasive Wear Resistance of Cemented Carbides

Product Advantages

Multi-method capability: One machine supports G65, G105, and B611 test methods.

High test repeatability: Pneumatic loading with precision regulator and integrated pressure sensor ensures stable force application.

Flexible wheel configurations: Supports multiple wheel sizes and materials for different test conditions.

Stable speed control: PLC control with touch-screen interface provides accurate speed adjustment and monitoring.

Robust structure: Floor-standing system with heavy-duty frame ensures long-term operational stability.

Easy sand collection: Vertical abradant discharge with lower hopper simplifies cleanup.
