Features
A bent, coated metal strip is struck so the cylinder becomes a cone; the test finds the diameter at which the coating cracks.
#471 Impact Bend Tester
The bend and impact tester consists of two vertical guide rods carrying a 2300 g (±100 g) impact tool with a drop height of 650 mm (±5 mm). A specially designed sample platform holds the sample, and a 5 mm diameter mandrel for bending coated panels is mounted on the base plate.
A bent, coated metal strip is struck so that the cylinder formed by the strip is pressed into a cone. The test finds the bending diameter at which the coating cracks.
The bend and impact tester measures the flexibility and impact resistance of coatings on light metal sheet or tubes, simulating impact, flanging and bending.
