Paint Film Scratch Resistance Test Meter

The paint film scratch resistance tester evaluates the anti-scratch performance of coatings by moving a stylus with a fixed load uniformly across the surface and assessing the visibility of the scratches. It is used to test the physical durability of surface coatings on furniture, automobiles, and electronic products, in compliance with standards such as ASTM D5178.
Selection
When selecting, confirm the load range and stylus specifications required by the test standards, check the rigidity of the instrument to ensure testing stability, verify the motor precision to control scratch consistency, validate the illumination system's ability to identify scratches, and consider the types of fixtures suitable for different coating thicknesses.
