Taber Rotary Abrasers 1700 / 1750

The 'Test Taber' provides reliable data within minutes. Used to assess a material's resistance to wear, a flat sample is mounted on a turntable that rotates on a vertical axis. As the platen rotates, contact of the sample against the sliding rotation of two grinding wheels causes wear while a vacuum system removes loose wear debris during testing. The...

Multi-Finger Scratch Tester Taber 710

Initially developed to meet automotive specifications, this device is ideal for evaluating plastics, paints, floor coverings, etc. Five independent tungsten carbide tools mounted on more or less loaded sliding axes exert a vertical load on the sample to be tested, positioned on a table moving by pneumatic system.

820 sand fall apparatus

Apparatus used to measure the resistance of paints, varnishes and other organic coatings to abrasion created by the fall of standardized natural silica sand or grains of silicon carbide through a guide tube.
