ASTM D5963 DIN Rubber Wear Abrasion Tester DIN Abrasion Tester

ASTM D5963 DIN Rubber Wear Abrasion Tester DIN Abrasion Tester

1. Application

DIN Rubber Wear Abrasion Tester is used to test the friction of surface by a particular piece of abrasive paper, After wear for a certain time, and then assess the condition of material surface, weight, volume and thickness, from this standard to assess the abrasive nature of materials, as such elastic material, rubber, tires, convey belt, transmit belt, sole, synthetic leather, leather and others 

2. Principle

Under a predetermined contact pressure and a given area ,the specimen with sandpaper angled to measureabrasion resistance of the specimen subjected to rubbing on a certain level of sandpaper, sandpaper affixed to the surface of the drum, samples pressed on a drum with sandpaper, and the specimen along the roller to the lateral movement, abrasion resistance is produced at one end of the cylindrical specimen, tests the value  of the mass loss of the specimen, by the density of the specimen to calculate the amount of volume abrasion.
