About This Product
Abrasion resistance shows how well rubber resists wear when it rubs against a rough surface, which matters for items such as soles, belts and tyres. In this tester a cylindrical specimen is held against a rotating drum covered with abrasive cloth, and the holder moves along the drum so that fresh cloth is used. The wear on the specimen is then compared with a reference to give an abrasion resistance index.
