The TQC Impact Test is used to determine the impact resistivity and flexibility of coatings. The dual scale instrument is equipped with a special guidance which assures that the distance between each impact is always according to the standard. For correct positioning a spirit-level is built-in. Each Impact test comes as a complete set (instrument and accessoires) to perform a test according DIN/ISO 6272, ASTM D2794 and ASTM G14
Mandatory test in Qualicoat, QIB and GSB accredited laboratories.
Revolutionary apparatus for testing the resistivity of coatings at various stages of deformation in accordance
with ISO 1520. The built in gear-box minimizes the manual force which is required to deform the test panel,
allowing to perform a smooth deformation. The degree or deformation is digitally displayed at a resolution of
0.01 mm. Mandatory test in Qualicoat, QIB and GSB accredited laboratories.
The TQC Conical Bend Test “Basic” is a simplified version of the TQC Conical Bend Test “Pro” (SP1830) It is a laboratory apparatus to bend coated test panels over a conical shaped mandrel in order to assess the elasticity or resistance of a coating-, paint or varnish to cracking, elongation and/or detachment from a metal test panel in accordance with ISO 6860 and ASTM D522. The conical shape of the bending area allows the deformation of the test panel and examination of the elasticity range of a coating over any diameter between 3.1 and 38 mm in one single test. The sample panel is secured by means of two clamping knobs which has to be tightened and untightened by turning respectively clockwise or anti-clockwise.
The TQC Bend Test Conical Mandrel “Pro” is a laboratory apparatus to bend coated test panels over a conical shaped mandrel in order to assess the elasticity or resistance of a coating-, paint or varnish to cracking, elongation and/or detachment from a metal test panel in accordance with ISO 6860 and ASTM D522. The conical shape of the bending area allows the deformation of the test panel and examination of the elasticity range of a coating over any diameter between 3.1 and 38 mm in one single test. The sample panel is secured to the apparatus by means of a quick lever handle that lock and unlocks the panel in a split second using just hand.
The TQC Cylindrical Bend Test is a very robust yet elegant testing instrument to indicate the elasticity, elongation and adhesion of a paint film at bending stress. The TQC Cylindrical Bend Test is designed to perform tests according to the latest standard ASTM D522, assessing the resistance of a coating, paint, varnish or related products to cracking and/or detachment from a surface when, subjected to bending around a cylindrical mandrel under standard conditions.
The diameter of the mandrels are (in inches): 1/8, 1/4, 3/8, 1/2, 5/8, 3/4, 1
The luxurious desktop holder with 7 mandrels can also be wall mounted.
The TQC Cylindrical Bend Test is used to determine the elasticity adhesion and elongation of paint on sheet metal in accordance with ISO 1519. A test panel (max. size 150 x 100 mm) is bent over a cylindrical mandrel. The smaller the diameter of the mandrel, the larger the tension on the coating. The test panel is then checked for cracks or damage in the coating.
The luxurious desktop holder with 14 mandrels can also be wall mounted.
Mandatory test in Qualicoat, QIB and GSB accredited laboratories.
