Reciprocating Abrasion Tester
The Reciprocating Abrasion Tester is designed to evaluate the scratch resistance and wear performance of coatings, plastics, decorative fabrics, automotive interior materials, and pile fabrics. It uses a reciprocating motion with adjustable stroke and speed, combined with precise load application, to simulate material wear under controlled laboratory conditions. The instrument provides accurate, repeatable results suitable for compliance testing against multiple international standards.
