AI Overview
A Circular Rubbing Tester, often called a Circular Rub Fastness Tester, is a laboratory instrument used primarily in the footwear and leather industries to evaluate the color fastness and surface durability of materials. It measures how well a material—such as leather, synthetic fabrics, or plastics—resists color transfer and physical damage when subjected to rotational friction.
Key Functions and Use Cases
- Color Fastness Testing: Assesses the degree of color transfer from a specimen to a circular wool felt pad.
- Abrasion Resistance: Evaluates surface damage, such as marring or finish degradation, after a set number of rubbing cycles.
- Versatile Testing Modes: Machines like the SATRA STM 462 can perform dry, wet (using water or solvents), perspiration, and alcohol rubbing tests.
- Industry Applications: Widely used for testing shoe uppers, linings, insocks, and printed films.
Technical Specifications
- Rotational Speed: Typically 150 ± 5 revolutions per minute (r/min).
- Applied Load: Standard weights include 7.1 ± 0.2 N (approx. 0.73kg) or 24.5 ± 0.5 N (approx. 2.5kg).
- Rubbing Media: Uses a circular wool felt pad (typically 25mm external diameter).
- Compliance Standards: Tests are conducted according to international standards such as ISO 17700 Method B, BS EN 13516, and SATRA TM8.
