Film Coefficient of Friction Testers

Article No. 15287

FX-7100 F/W Friction Tester

Measures nominal (Kinetic) and peak (Static) friction values simultaneously
Force Gauge displays the calculated Static and Kinetic COF values, without the need to add software for calculations
Has 1000 grams force capacity
Rugged and less likely to get damaged than lower capacity force gauges, yet offers same accuracy and resolution
It has a Digital Console Display showing measured kinetic and static COF values
Meets specifications of ASTM D1894 Standard Test Method for Static and Kinetic Coefficients of Friction of Plastic Film
Fixed-sled design with moving table speed of 6 inches per minute
