Mandrel Bend Tester

The mandrel bend tester detects cracking or peeling of coatings, films, and other materials when bent by winding the specimen around a mandrel of a standard diameter. It is used to evaluate material flexibility, adhesion, and bending resistance, and is suitable for quality control of coatings, inks, and plastic films.
Selection
When selecting a mandrel bend tester, it is important to consider the thickness range of the test material and match the diameter specifications of the mandrel; confirm that the bending angle and speed are adjustable; inspect the anti-slip design of the fixture and the method for securing the sample; verify compliance with standards such as ASTM D522 and ISO 1519; and pay attention to the durability of the instrument's structure and ease of operation.
