Cross Hatch Adhesion Test

The Cross Hatch Cutter allows an assessment to be made of the adhesion resistance of coatings to separation from substrates when a right-angled lattice pattern is cut into the coating and penetrates through to the substrate.

Stormer viscometers-(ASTM D 562)

ASTM D 3359
The 1mm Cutter is suitable for coatings under 60 microns.
The 2mm Cutter is suitable for coatings over 60 microns.
Multiple coatings can be tested for the assessment of the resistance to separation of individual layers of the coating from each other.

Scratch Hardness Test

0 to 10 kg
ASTM D 2197 BF 3900

SHORE Hardness A & D

Measures the hardness of the surface of the coating.

Standards

ASTM D 2240 Fiberglass, Aluminum,Soft Metals,Plastics,Painted Surface
Take the measurement at last 12 mm form the edge of the material
the material must be at last 6 mm thick
Required pressure must be applied for 15 seconds
This force should be max 4.55 kg for a type D durometer
Meaning of a durometer reading
no indent sign :100
If indentation upto:2.5 mm :0
Measurements taken at 12mm from the edge of material
Material must be at least 6mm thick.

Holiday Detector Test

The Holiday Dete ctor is a DC Holiday Tester that tests and detects pinholes and flaws in insulated coatings on conductive substrates.

Standards

ASTM D 4787
ASTM G 62
ISO 2746
BS 1344-11

Significance

Pinholes in coatings invisible to naked eyes./li>
Detector counts pinholes and sounds alarm.
Allows instant repair of pinholes.
Especially suitable for large diameters and enables reliable testing of the complete tube in one or two operations only.
