The Scrub Abrasion and Washability Tester tests the resistance of paint, varnish or coatings to scratching, wearing, and color loss due to wet or dry abrasion.
The TQC Sheen Camera Tool is created for the TQC Sheen Scrub, Abrasion and Washability tester (AB6000 & AB6010). As washability tests are time consuming, we created a camera tool and software to save operator time.
The Scrub Abrasion and Washability Tester from TQC Sheen is used to test the resistance of paint, varnish or coatings to scratching, wearing, and color loss due to wet or dry abrasion, by simulating everyday wear from cleaning actions or general use. The test is either used as a “pass or fail” test by testing to a specified number of strokes or defining the minimum number of strokes at which a coating fails by checking at regular intervals. The Scrub Abrasion and Washability Tester is suitable for a wide range of scrub, abrasion, and washability tests that are in use. The modular system significantly decreases the costs for laboratories to comply to many standards.

The TQC Pencil Hardness Test according Wolff Wilborn provides in a simple method to test the scratch hardness of coatings. In this test, pencils in a range of 6B to 8H hardness-grade are used. The pencil is moved scratching over the surface under a 45° angle with a constant pressure. Then an optical assessment is carried out to see which pencil hardness damages the surface. Delivered with a set of 20 Koh-i-noor pencils and a pencil sharpener.
The Comprehensive Abrasion Test is a universal test machine to test the coating abrasion resistance on beverage cans or flat materials. The reciprocating motion mimics in-the-field transportation abrasion damage of coatings equivalent to the Gavarti Associates “GV-CAT” system. The Comprehensive Abrasion Test is used in coating test laboratories for quality control work.
The TQC Shore Hardness Gauge Test Stand is suitable for Shore A, C, and D* type Durometer. The test stand construction includes operating handle, adjustable glass stage, (height) adjustable Durometer fixture.
The TQC Hardness Pen is a pocket instrument for testing the hardness and wear/scratch resistance of materials such as coatings, lacquers, plastics or related products. A tungsten carbide tip is drawn over the surface with a defined constant pressure. The pressure on the tip can be changed using the slide or by changing the spring. A visual mark on the surface after use of the TQC Hardness Pen indicates a fail of the surface hardness or wear/scratch resistance. Can be used on flat and curved surfaces.
There are 2 versions available, the Standard and Pro.
The Standard version is supplied with 3 springs and one tip:
0-3N, graduation 10 g
0-10N, graduation 50 g
0-30N, graduation 150 g
Tip 1mm
The pro version includes the above as well as:
Tip 0,5mm
Tip 0,75mm
Pen holder with guidance wheels, which provides very stable load on tip and makes it easier to apply force.
