Adhesion Testers
We offers a wide range of adhesion testers used to verify that both surface preparation and coating application are within specification. All adhesion testing gauges use destructive methods, including pull off adhesion test, push off adhesion test and cross hatch/ cross cut test, to measure how well the coating adheres to the substrate.
Pull off adhesion test
Push off adhesion test
Cross Hatch/ Cross Cut adhesion test
Pull Off Adhesion:
simple to use, quantitative range giving a definitive adhesion value, ideal for the laboratory or field on flat or curved substrate applications. Tensile Dollies (or stubs) are glued to the coating and, when the adhesive has cured, the force required to pull the coating off the surface is measured.
Push Off Adhesion Testing:
A push off adhesion test measures the pressure required to push an area of coating away from the substrate. Push off adhesion testers are ideal for flat or curved surfaces and can test adhesion on both internal and external pipes.
A Push off adhesion tester is hand-powered, portable and ideal for testing the coating adhesion on tanks, pipelines etc. For more accurate adhesion testing on curved areas, there is a wide range of curved dollies available, each designed for a specific range of curvature.
Cross Hatch Adhesion Testers:
Cross Hatch / Cross Cut: a fast, low cost, visual comparison method for paint and powder coatings up to a thickness of 250μm (10mils). The coating is cut into small squares, thereby reducing lateral bonding, and the adhesion assessed against ISO, ASTM or Corporate Standards.
