Product Description
Leather scratch resistance tester
Test Principle:
The Leather scratch resistance tester according to test standards : test method id one side face of the sample as the inner surface and the other side face as the outside surface and bend this surface back and forth, write down the times that the sample have broken; or set the breakage time, then take it out and observe the degree it broken.
Clamping the specimen in fixture, after flexing back and forth in 22.5, observe the surface with a magnifying glass, record the damage degree to judge the resistance strength of flexing..

FAQs of Leather Scratch Resistance Tester:
Q: How does the Leather Scratch Resistance Tester work to assess leather durability?
A: The tester uses a replaceable tungsten carbide needle to apply adjustable force (0~500g) to a specimen. Sample holders secure leather or synthetic materials, and a digital touch interface controls scratch cycles, width, and stroke. After each test, the device stores test data and alerts users upon cycle completion via audible and visual signals.
Q: What are the benefits of using a tester compliant with ISO 1518 and ASTM D5178 standards?
A: Compliance ensures that test results are reliable, repeatable, and accepted internationally for leather and synthetic materials. This is essential for product development, quality control, and meeting customer or regulatory requirements in various industrial sectors.
Q: When should I use this tester in the product development process?
A: The tester is best used during material selection, product prototyping, and before mass production. Regular use in quality control guarantees that finished goods meet required scratch resistance standards and customer expectations.
Q: Where is the ideal environment to install and operate the Leather Scratch Resistance Tester?
A: Operate the tester in a temperature-controlled lab or quality control area, within room temperature (15C~35C), humidity (40%~70% RH), and ensure you have access to AC 220V power. Stable surfaces are recommended, given the tabletop mounting and machine weight of about 30 kg.
Q: What is the process for preparing and testing specimens with the device?
A: Specimens should be sized to 100 x 50 mm and securely clamped using the adjustable sample holder. Set the test parameters using the digital controls, select the desired scratch force and cycle speed, then start the test. The machine completes cycles automatically, with results easily stored or exported.
Q: How easy is it to clean and maintain this scratch resistance tester?
A: The testers design allows for straightforward cleaning, with accessible surfaces and components. Maintenance is low due to the use of durable stainless steel materials and a robust construction, minimizing downtime and user intervention.
Q: What advantages does the Leather Scratch Resistance Tester offer for lab use and quality control tasks?
A: This instrument offers high accuracy (1% of reading), quick operation, reliable data management, and flexible specimen testing. Its semi-automatic functionality and easy-to-use interface make it ideal for routine lab assessments and continuous quality assurance.
