WAT Wyzenbeek Abrasion Tester

WAT Wyzenbeek Abrasion Tester – Latest

The WAT Wyzenbeek Abrasion Tester determines the abrasion resistance of fabrics when rubbed against a standard abradant or wire mesh screen with a backward and forward motion over a curved surface. It is used by automotive, woven fabric, and PVC fabric manufacturers working to US standards.

Motor driven with 4 abrasion heads, PLC & HMI control for precise cycle counting. Features a sealed transmission drive for quieter operation and suction manifolds to connect to an auxiliary vacuum cleaner. Complies with ASTM D4157, SAE J948, and Chrysler LP-463KB-06-01.

The oscillatory frequency is 90 CPM (adjustable) with a 76 mm arc. Sample size is 245 × 73 mm, tension is adjustable from 1–6 lbf and load from 1–3.5 lbf. Optional consumables include rubber pads, SS wire mesh screens, and Abrading Fabric #10 Cotton Duck.

Adjustable Test Parameters

Oscillatory frequency, sample tension (1–6 lbf), and load (1–3.5 lbf) are all adjustable. Accepts both standard abradant and wire mesh screen.

It is designed for automotive, woven fabric, and PVC fabric manufacturers working to US standards.

The tester accepts a standard abradant or a wire mesh screen. Optional consumables include rubber pads (pack of 8), SS wire mesh screens (pack of 4), and Abrading Fabric #10 Cotton Duck (5 metres).

Oscillatory frequency is adjustable up to 90 CPM. Tension on sample is adjustable from 1–6 lbf (27.2N) and load on sample from 1–3.5 lbf (15.8N).

ASTM D4157, SAE J948, Chrysler LP-463KB-06-01, and many more US standards.

The machine has 4 test stations (groups), with motor-driven abrasion heads and PLC & HMI control.

The sealed transmission drive is a design feature that reduces operating noise, making the instrument suitable for laboratory environments.

The suction manifolds allow the instrument to connect to an auxiliary vacuum cleaner to remove debris and fibres generated during abrasion testing.

Power: 220/110V, 50/60 Hz, 3A. Weight: 125 kg. Dimensions: 550 × 560 × 550 mm (L×W×H).
