BEND-M1519 : The devide complies with ISO 1519-73, DIN 53152 & applies to paints & specifies a method for determining the elasticity of the film by bending .
The device allow to measure the elascity & strength of coating through bending the metal plate wiht tested coating around a set of cylindrical rods with diamter from 2 mm to 32 mm .
BED-6860 is used to determine the elasticity or resistance , adhesion & elongation of coatings on sheet metal in accordance with ISO 6860, ASTM D522-A, BS 3900-E11, ECCA T7.
The sample is clamped against a conical mandrel & is bent around the mandrel by a roller mounted on a hand operated lever.
The diamater of the mandrel at the point where the coating of the sample start to crack can be determine from a scale ( 3 - 37 mm ) marked on the sample clamp .
