Six-Grid Scratcher

The six-grid cross-cut tester uses spring-loaded steel needles to create six parallel scratches on the coating surface, which is used to test the adhesion between the coating and the substrate. After scratching, the peeling condition of the coating is observed to determine the bonding strength. It is commonly used for quality inspection of paint and electroplated coatings.
Selection
When selecting, pay attention to the grid spacing specifications such as 1mm and 2mm, and match them according to the coating thickness. The blade must have a hardness higher than the tested coating. Manual types are suitable for on-site use, while electric types are suitable for laboratory batch testing. Observing the peeling proportion requires the assistance of adhesive tape for evaluation.

Pencil Hardness Tester for Rapid Evaluation of Coating Surface Hardness
The pencil hardness tester is a tool used for rapidly assessing the relative hardness of coating surfaces through standardized scratch tests. It employs a series of pencil leads with known hardness levels, which are drawn across the coating under a fixed load and angle. The hardness grade, ranging from 6B to 9H, is determined based on whether a permanent scratch is produced.
Application of Gloss Meter in Gloss Measurement of Varnish Coatings
A gloss meter is used to measure the gloss of varnish coatings by detecting surface-reflected light to quantitatively assess the appearance of the coating. The measurement is based on the principle of specular reflection of light, commonly employing angles such as 20°, 60°, and 85° to correspond to different gloss ranges, and follows standard formulas for calculation.

Determination of specular gloss: Selection criteria for instruments at different angles (20°/60°/85°)
Specular gloss is a measure of a material's ability to reflect light, calculated by comparing the reflected luminous flux of a sample with that of a standard plate. Three angles—20°, 60°, and 85°—are commonly used for measurement, corresponding to high-gloss, medium-gloss, and low-gloss surfaces, respectively.
