About This Product
Leather used for gloves should resist water, and this test gives a measure of how well it does. A specimen is placed on the wetted surface of a metal anvil and tapped intermittently by a falling hammer. The number of taps needed before water comes through shows the water proofness, and the gain in weight of the specimen shows how much water it absorbed during the test. The Water Proofness Tester can be supplied and exported to buyers in Indonesia, Rwanda, Cameroon, Namibia, Turkey and Syria.
