About This Product
Abrasion and pilling are two common wear tests in textile labs. In an abrasion test a fabric sample is rubbed against a standard abradant under a set load, while in a pilling test fabric is rubbed against itself so that small fibre balls form on the surface. Students compare how different fabrics, weaves and finishes resist wear after the same amount of rubbing. Sample holders, weights and cutting templates are used to prepare the specimens so that every test is carried out in the same way. The Abrasion Cum Pilling Tester can be supplied and exported to buyers in Morocco, Eritrea, Chad, Oman, Peru and Eswatini.
