TQC Sheen Scrub Abrasion and Washability Tester with dual tracks, adjustable clamps, and tubing for applying liquids during abrasion resistance testing.

TQC Sheen Scrub Abrasion & Washability Tester

Manufactured by TQC Sheen

Our robust abrasion tester is suitable for a wide range of scrub, abrasion, and washability tests. Depending on the model you choose, it measures scratch, wear, and colour resistance loss caused by dry and/or wet abrasion.

This abrasion scrub tester is driven by a micro-step controlled electro motor to deliver precise and steady speed and sinus waveform control.

Choice of Models

First the base apparatus has to be selected from two models. If you only need dry testing, then our basic abrasion tester (Art. Nr. AB6010) does the job. Prefer to have both dry and wet testing options? Our pump-kitted standard model (Art. Nr. AB6000) gives you that extra capability.

Each base unit is completely flexible and allows for easy exchange of the tools used for testing.
