Single-sided Cross-Cut Tester

The single-blade cross-cut tester uses a single-edged blade to cut a grid on the coating surface to evaluate the adhesion between the coating and the substrate. It is used for adhesion testing of coatings and inks, and the quality of adhesion is determined by observing the peeling at the edges of the grid during operation.
Selection
When selecting, consider the blade spacing specification to match standard requirements, ensure blade hardness for clean cuts, and evaluate handle design for operational stability. Determine the cutting depth based on common coating thickness, and opt for metal blade heads for greater durability.
