Impact Resistance Tester for Paint – Indirect

With the passage of time, there will be the formation of cracks in the surface of paint coatings. These coatings will also get broken off and have an effect on adhesion and elasticity. Thus, it is very important to test the impact resistance of surface coatings. For this, the Presto has come up with an advanced testing instrument known as an impact resistance tester for Paint-indirect. This testing instrument has gained wide acceptance as a means of testing the impact resistance of many types of coating from paints and vanishes to tough plated, plastic, or laminated coating. It is also used to establish quality standards for resistance to impact surface damage and penetration of many construction materials such as resins, fiberglass, sheet metals, plywood, plastics, etc.

The main purpose of using this advanced testing machine is to test the impact resistance of many types of coatings from paints and vanishes to tough plated, plastic, or laminated coatings. Two models, one calibrated in English units and one in Metric, are structurally identical except for the weights that are supplied with each model. Tolerance of weight is +/- 2 oz. The specimen is placed over a hole of 0.640 in. (1.63 cm) diameter in a die mounted in the anvil. The round-nosed punch, 0.625 in (1.59cm) diameter, is placed upon the specimen. The weight is raised to the desired height in the 1 meter graduated guide tube and dropped. Damage to the sample may be determined visually or with low power magnification. Weights of 2 and 4 pounds offer impact forces of 80 and 160 inch-lbs. respectively, while the 1 kg and 2 kg weights can exert forces of 100 kg-cm and 200 kg-cm.

This testing machine is a blessing for the manufacturers in the paint industry that will help you to test the paint and plating of products. Apart from this, you can easily test the coating for breaking and crack formation and also for elasticity and adhesion. The regular and remitting use of any product will lead to the depletion of the product. This will be the same in the case of paint coatings. Thus, it is very important for you to deliver the best quality products to the users by testing the impact resistance of coatings. This testing instrument has been made in accordance with various quality standards like ASTM D2794-93(2010), ISO 6272-1:2011.

With its high-quality rugged structure and corrosion-resistant main body, you will easily be able to use this testing instrument for a longer time. You can perform the test with a single-handed hassle-free operation. Its fast guiding mechanism will provide you with highly accurate testing results. So, what are you waiting for, test your paint coatings with Presto impact resistance of paint and get increased profits for your business?

The Presto impact resistance tester for paint-indirect will is used in the paint industry. The energy of load exerted can be varied either by using different heights of fall or different dropping weights. Coating attached to substrates is subjected to damaging impact during the manufacturing of articles and their use in service. Using this impact resistance tester for paints-indirect will help you to test the impact of surface damage and penetration of many construction materials such as plastics, resins, fiberglass, sheet metals, plywood, etc. To easily use this testing instrument, you can follow the steps mentioned below:

• First of all, take a square piece of painted sheet that you want to test.
• After that, raise the weight to the desired height in 1 meter graduated guide tube as per the requirement of the test and specifications of the sample.
• Now lock the pin using the knob provided on the weight uplifting holder.
• Pull down the Punch Uplifting Knob to uplift the punch in order to clamp the sample.
• After adjusting the height and uplifting the punch, place the specimen over a hole of 0.640 in. (16.3 mm) diameter in a die mounted in the anvil.
• Now, pull up the Punch Uplifting Knob to place the punch over the sample and to clamp the sample firmly.
• Now unlock the pin using the knob provided on the weight uplifting holder to release the weight on the punch. (This weight will collide on the punch and indirectly impact the sample).
• Again pull down the Punch Uplifting Knob to uplift the punch in order to unclamp the sample.
