Sagging Tester

The sag tester evaluates anti-sagging properties by vertically placing the coating film and observing the flow and accumulation of the paint under gravity. Its principle is based on Newtonian fluid mechanics, and its function is to control the uniformity of coating thickness. It is applied in quality monitoring during the construction processes of paints and inks.
Selection
When selecting a sag meter, it is essential to match the viscosity range of the material being tested, consider the notch width specifications and their alignment with standards, confirm the material's corrosion resistance, check the scale accuracy, integrate common film thickness testing requirements, and refer to industry standards such as ASTM methods for proper adaptation.
