CO EFFICIENT OF FRICTION TESTER

As per ASTM D1894-11

The Co – Efficient of friction is the ratio of the frictional resistance to the normal pressure acting on two surfaces in contact. This Co- Efficient of friction is an inverse measure of the relative ease with which the surface of one material will slide over a similar surface or over the surface of another material.


There are two methods ( A & B ) can be adopted for measurement of Co – Efficient of friction of Plastic, Rubber, Paper, Films and other similar materials. Digital and Computerized Models are available with a constant rate of traverse speed and Standard Sled.
