The physical properties of coatings are important for a products performance life cycle. The common tests performed include testing the extensibility and adhesive qualities and this test can be carried out with the Cupping Tester 760. This test complies with BS EN/ISO 1520 BS 3900:E4

Another method is the Mandrel Bend test, we offer two approaches, the Conical Mandrel Bend Tester 801, which bends the test sample over a progressive range of angles. This test complies with ASTM D522, BS 3900:E11 and ISO 6860

The other approach is the Cylindrical Mandrel Bend Tester 809. This test uses a specific diameter mandrel over which the sample is subjected to. This test complies with BS3900:E1, DIN 53152; NFT 30-040; SIS 184174
