Product Description
Features
- Sturdy construction & heavy duty frame/base
- Easy clamping & depth adjustment (DIN EN ISO)
The falling weight method provides reliable evaluation of the coatings resistance to impact. A mass (with or without indenter, depending on standards) guided by a graduated tube, falls from variable heights up to 1 m onto the sample panel firmly clamped onto a die.
The pass/fail height or force to failure can be determined on the tube scale. Three versions are available, according to various standards.
Precision Impact Testing Made SimpleMeasure the durability of tubular samples effectively with manual control and factory-calibrated accuracy. The tester delivers 1% accuracy of reading with a reliable manual release mechanism. Supporting up to 60 mm diameter samples, its built to meet BS and ASTM standards for credibility in result delivery across varied applications.
Safety and Durability at the ForefrontConstructed from high-grade mild steel with a powder-coated finish, this impact tester resists corrosion and ensures long-term performance. A protective shield with a lock mechanism safeguards users, while rigid construction maintains stability during testing. Floor-mounted installation provides additional operational safety.
Versatile Testing Supported by AccessoriesOptional accessories such as digital indicators, extra hammers, and replacement anvils make the tester adaptable for different testing scenarios. It operates within ambient to 50C temperatures, offering consistent results across environments. The equipments adjustable height and manual release system allow customization for varied test requirements.
FAQs of Tubular Impact Tester - BS / ASTM:
Q: How does the Tubular Impact Tester operate for impact testing?
A: The tester uses a manually released pendulum mechanism to strike tubular samples, simulating real-life impacts. This controlled process measures the samples resilience and conforms to BS/ASTM standards for accuracy.
Q: What components are included with the Tubular Impact Tester?
A: Standard components include the hammer, release mechanism, test stand, and scale. The equipment arrives fully factory calibrated and includes a calibration certificate. Optional extras such as digital indicators, additional hammers, and replacement anvils are available for enhanced testing flexibility.
Q: When should I calibrate the impact tester, and how is calibration handled?
A: The Tubular Impact Tester is factory calibrated upon delivery and arrives with a calibration certificate. Additional calibration is generally required only after significant use or repairs, based on laboratory or compliance schedules.
Q: Where can the Tubular Impact Tester be installed?
A: This tester is designed for floor-mounted installation, making it ideal for laboratories, quality control environments, and industrial workshops across India and beyond, where sturdy placement and reliable operation are needed.
Q: What benefits do the protective shield and lock mechanism provide during testing?
A: These safety features protect the user from accidental contact with moving parts or sample debris during impact testing, ensuring a secure and controlled operating environment at all times.
Q: How can optional accessories improve the testing process?
A: Accessories like digital indicators enhance measurement precision, while extra hammers and replacement anvils enable testing of various sample types and sizes, providing adaptability for evolving test requirements.
Q: What is the typical usage of this impact tester in industry?
A: It is primarily used to assess the impact resistance of tubular samples, supporting quality assurance and compliance testing in manufacturing, metallurgy, and commercial laboratories adhering to BS/ASTM standards.
