TAPPI-T476 2 Station Leather Taber Abrasion Tester
The TAPPI-T476 2 Stations Leather TABER Wear-resistant Tester is designed for evaluating abrasion resistance in various materials including plywood, glass, leather, and more. This precision instrument utilizes standardized grinding wheels with calibrated loading weights to conduct wear tests according to multiple international standards.
This tester conforms to multiple international standards including:
- TAPPI-T476
- ISO-5470
- DIN-53754, 53799, 53109, 52347
- ASTM-D1044, D3884
The testing process involves using a standard knife to cut the specimen, followed by abrasion with regulated grinding wheel models under specified loading weights. After reaching a predetermined number of rotations, the specimen is removed for evaluation. Assessment includes visual inspection of specimen condition or comparison of weight loss with original materials.
This versatile tester serves multiple industries including:
- Leather products, paints, carpets, suitcases, clothing
- Cardboard, plastic coatings, glass, ceramic tiles
- Metal plating, high-pressure sheets, varnishes
- Decorative sheets, plastics, textiles, flexible floor mats
- Traffic paint, blankets, electronic components
