Adhesion Tester |
 |
The HATE Adhesion Tester or Pull Off Tester measures with ease and precision the adhesion bond strength of applied coatings.One of the most accurate and versatile adhesion testers currently available.
The adhesion is measured by the tensile pull on a Dolly glued to the coating surface. The force is applied through the centre of the Dolly by a hydraulically loaded pin.
This ensures an exactly central point loading of the force.

|
|
|
|

 |
The RH Dewpoint Meter allows the determination of the relative humidity, dew point and air temperature before the application of a coating. Specifications usually detail that the relative humidity and the dew point temperature must be strictly adhered to, and that the surface temperature is monitored.
The RH% Dewpoint Meter measures both relative humidity and air temperature and computes and displays the dew point temperature.
|
|
|
|
|
Whirling Hygrometer |
 |
The Whirling Hygrometer or pyscrometer is an established and well-known method for determining the relative humidity and if there is any moisture on steel prior to painting.
The Whirling Hygrometer is one of the most economic methods of monitoring relative humidity and dew point.
Two models are available: BS Whirling Hygrometer with mercury bulbs fitted and a Budget Whirling Hygrometer with red spirit bulbs fitted.

Bresle Test |
 |
This Chloride Test on steel or Salt Test on steel using the Bresle Patch method will help to prevent coating failure due to salts such as chlorides and sulphates contaminating the surface prior to the coating application. This contamination can be tested quickly and simply using the Bresle Test.
The Bresle Test is one of the most popular tests for extracting and measuring the salt contamination on blast-cleaned substrates.
|
|
|
|
|
Blast Clean Test |
 |
The Potassium Ferricyanide Test, using Potassium Ferricyanide Papers will enable detection of any water-soluble iron salts that form at the bottom of rust pits after blast-cleaning. If these salts are present, they rapidly induce corrosion.
|
|
|
|
|
Dust Tape Test |
 |
The Dust Test Tape BS EN ISO 8502-3 assess the quantity and particle size of dust on steel surfaces prepared for painting. Dust on blast-cleaned steel surfaces may reduce the adhesion of applied coatings and by absorbing moisture, may promote the corrosion of the blast-cleaned steel surface.
Accumulation of dust occurs more naturally on horizontal surfaces, the interior of pipes and in structural cavities. Inspection should be carried out to ensure that such areas are adequately cleaned and free from dust before painting.

Powder Coating Meter |
 |
The Powdatest Electrostatic Voltage Meter or Electrostatic Gun Tester is a precision instrument that measures both electrostatic spray gun high voltages and discharge currents.
With the Powdatest, any electrostatic sprayer can now quickly measure the voltage at the spray gun tip. This corona point is where the electrostatic voltage must be maintained at the correct voltage. The spray gun high voltage can be up to 100kV and can be either a positive or negative charge. Using the Powdatest, the actual gun voltage can be quickly and accurately measured.

Pencil Hardness Teste |
 |
The Pencil Hardness Tester is an is a simple and effective technique to evaluate the hardness and resistance to scratching of coatings.The test method allows the use of pencils which have a known hardness grade to be moved over the surface to be tested at a fixed angle and pressure.The principle of operation uses the pressure applied to allow the pencil lead to just crush and therefore repeatable results of the hardness of the coating can be obtained. The pressure or weight applied relates to pencil lead crushing and therefore can be used for vertical coating evaluation to achieve repeatable results.
