Asian Elemdrorf Tearing Strength:
The Tearing Strength of
fabrics, Paper, Plastic Film, or other similar materials in sheet
form is determined by measurement of work done in tearing through a
fixed length of the test specimen using the elemendorf tear tester.
The “ASIAN�
Elmendorf Tear Tester consists of a brass sector pendulum
pivoted on anti friction ball bearings over a vertical bracket fixed
on a rigid metallic base. The test specimen, in shape of a
rectangular, is held between two clamps, one of which is mounted on a
pendulum and the other is mounted on the vertical bracket. The clamps
are mounted in such a manner that their holding faces are aligned
with each other when pendulum is released by lifting a release lever
the action cause the pendulum to fall down under its weight & to
tear the test specimen while doing so. The energy absorbed during
tearing is indicated on a scale fitted on pendulum by a low friction
pointer pivoted on the axis of the pendulum.
An adjustable knife is
also mounted on the pendulum upper bracket is centered between the
two clamps & is used for making the initial slit in the test
specimen.
A check weight is
supplied with the tester for verification of the scale.
The instruments is
finished is metallic painting and bright chrome plating to give it a
corrosion resistant finish
