Light-Duty Impact Tester
Light-Duty Impact Tester is a BYK-Gardner testing instrument used to evaluate impact resistance, flexibility, elongation, and surface resistance against light impact. This instrument is designed for materials that can be damaged or penetrated by small impact forces, making it suitable for testing coatings, plastics, films, and products exposed to light contact during daily use.
In impact resistance testing, the sample is placed in the test area, then a falling weight is dropped from a selected height through the guide tube to generate a measured impact energy. After impact, the sample surface is inspected for cracking, deformation, penetration, delamination, chipping, or failure. This method helps users determine the exact failure point of a material or establish pass/fail specifications for quality control.
Light-Duty Impact Tester has a compact design that saves bench space and is practical for laboratory or production use. The instrument typically uses a 2 lb falling weight with an integrated punch, an inch-scale guide tube, and force capacity up to 28 inch-pounds. This product is suitable for quality control, R&D testing, supplier approval, batch comparison, material development, and performance evaluation of light-duty materials in coatings, plastics, packaging, and consumer product applications.
