Project Introduction

The abrasion tester uses a special paper tape as the friction medium, applying a fixed load to the friction head. The friction head, through a fixed diameter roller and a constant-speed motor, drives the rotating paper tape to continuously apply force to the test sample surface until the base material is visible or a specific degree of wear is reached. The abrasion resistance of the sample is evaluated by the number of rotations of the motor displayed on the counter.

Application Scope

The Tape Abrasion Tester is suitable for wear resistance tests on various surface coatings (electroplating, baking paint, screen printing, etc.). It involves rubbing uncoated paper or tape against the sample under a certain number of rotations to determine the wear effect.

Method Standard

ASTM F 2357-04 RCA Tape Abrasion Resistance Test
