Taber Linear Abraser 5800 115/230V
The Taber Heavy Duty Linear Abraser 5800 is a versatile tester that can evaluate material properties of finished products with a rugged, durable surface finish. You can customize test parameters to your exact needs with adjustable stroke length, speed and load.
Features
- Measure abrasion resistance and other material properties.
- Integrated T-slot table makes specimen mounting straightforward, permitting consistent test set-up.
- A free floating head follows the contours of test specimens, permitting the testing of flat or contoured products.
- Supplied with the 2” diameter Universal Attachment and Scotch-Brite™ scouring pads, this instrument may be used to measure resistance to scrubbing for products like nonstick coatings.
- With a 16mm diameter spline shaft and higher torque motor, the Heavy Duty Linear Abraser can accommodate a testing load up to 4550 grams (10 lbs) per test sample. And to increase test output, adding an optional second test kit allows two tests to be performed simultaneously.
- Slotted crank arm for adjustable stroke length (0” to 13”)
- Preset speed selections (15, 30, 37, 45, 60 cycles per minute)
- Stroke length scale calibrated in English and Metric Units
- 16mm diameter spline shaft
- Left / Right side mounting
- 115V / 230V operation
- Variable load from 500 to 4550 gram (optional weight discs available)
- Optional attachments (sold separately) may also be used to evaluate resistance to damage from rub, scratch, or mar.
Standards
ASTM D4060, ASTM D3884, ASTM D3389, and ISO 5470
Procedure
A test attachment is secured to the bottom of a vertical spline shaft and accessory weights may be placed on a weight holder affixed to the top. A precision bearing on the spline shaft creates a "free-floating" test system. As the test arm moves in a linear motion, the "free-floating" system will raise or lower as the test attachment follows the contours of the specimen being tested - curved or flat.
