DIN Abrasion Tester

This equipment is used for evaluating wear resistance of
vulcanized or thermoplastic rubber conforming to the
German Industrial Standard (DIN 53516), and is also
incorporated into ISO4649, JIS K 6264-2, GB/T9867. It is
used in a wide range of fields for evaluating such
products as conveyer belts, outsole material of sports
shoes, etc. Wrap the abrasive paper around the surface
of the drum, rotate it at a constant speed and press the
cylindrical rubber test piece against the abrasive
surface with a load of 5N or 10N. For measurement, a
wear test is performed up to a wear distance of 40 m. JIS
K 6264-2 has two test methods, A and B. The equipment
can select either of the methods quite easily by
exchanging attachments.
