ASTM COF Measurement Device

The ASTM coefficient of friction tester measures dynamic/static friction by sliding a sled over the surface of a material and calculates the coefficient of friction. It is used to evaluate the slipperiness or anti-slip properties of packaging materials, films, paper, and other surfaces, guiding production process control.
Selection
When making a selection, consider compatibility with testing standards, confirm that the instrument's measurement range covers the sample's friction coefficient range, check whether the slider dimensions and pressure parameters align with the material properties, ensure the data output method meets recording requirements, and evaluate the ease of operation and maintenance costs of the equipment.
