About This Product
Resilience shows how well a foam springs back after being struck. In the ball rebound test a metallic sphere is dropped from a fixed height onto a slab of polyurethane foam lying on a horizontal surface, and the height to which it rebounds is found. A higher rebound means a more resilient foam. Students use the test to compare cushioning foams, and the adjustable tube lets slabs of different thickness be tested under the same drop height. The Ball Resilience Tester can be supplied and exported to buyers in Libya, New Zealand, Bolivia, Kazakhstan, Palestine and Philippines.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. How is resilience determined with the Ball Resilience Tester?
A metallic sphere is dropped on a slab of foam kept on a horizontal surface from a height of 500 mm, and the height to which it rebounds after striking the foam is found.
Q2. How are different foam thicknesses tested?
The acrylic tube is held over the base by a holding block that can be moved vertically with a screw, so specimens of different thickness can be tested.
Q3. How is the sphere released?
It is released by pressing a spring-loaded support, which is designed to release the sphere without imparting any initial linear or rotary movement to it.
