Manual Tearing Tester

G008 Manual Tearing Tester - Material Tear Resistance Test

G008Manual Tearing Tester, The Elmendorf tear method can be used to test the force required to extend a specified length of a variety of sheet or film specimens under specified loads and specified cracks. It can detect the tear strength under a specific impact force, and the impact force corresponds to a specific drop hammer. First, a small tongue-shaped opening should be cut on the sample by the tester, and the tear strength can be then measured as the incision expanded. The tester is designed for convenience and flexibility, and can be used for a variety of tests on light and heavy samples.

G008 Manual Tearing Tester

1. The tester manually clamps the samples, and the distance between the clamps is 2.8 + 0.3 mm. At this time, the pendulum bob is in the initial position and the clamp is in a straight line. The blade is sharp and not damaged. The blade should be centered and at the correct angle to the bottom of the fixture.

2.The tester is compact in design and consists of pendulum bob, base and cutter. It has three pairs of interchangeable pendulums, which can increase the range of up to 64.000mN for testing thick textiles. It can meet a variety of testing requirements, simple and convenient operation, accurate experimental data and good repeatability.
