What is CROSS CUT ADHESION TEST ?

TQC Cross Cut Adhesion Tester.

Cross cut adhesion test methods cover procedures for assessing the adhesion of coating films to metallic substrates by applying and also removing pressure-sensitive tape over cuts made in the film. In order to perform this procedure, one ought to have the required tools: the crosscut kit, magnifier and a table chart. The kit consists of parallel knives used to cut through the dry paint.

The first test requires to make a lattice pattern in the film to the substrate by producing a series of parallel cuts, and then cross-angled to each other to produce 25–100 squares of the same dimensions. The second, short treatment is done on the ruled area by brushing in a diagonal direction; pressure-sensitive tapes can also be used for hard substrates. Finally, the grid area is examine and evaluated by a magnifier and also the standard table chart to determine the adhesion rate of the coating or paint.

The coating removal is specially use to determine the rate of adhesion. The variance of the adhesion of coatings comes as a result of the surface treatment or the nature of the substrate. A crosscut adhesion test is done on different substrates provided there exists a film of coating.

Firstly is TQC CROSS CUT ADHESION TEST KIT CC1000

The TQC Cross Cut Adhesion Test KIT CC1000 is a destructive method use to test the adhesion of dry coats of paint on their substrate. With two series of parallel cuts cross angled to each other to obtain a pattern of 25 or 100 similar squares. Then the ruled area is evaluated by using a table chart after a short treatment with a stiff brush, or adhesive tape for hard substrates.

The round cutting knife of the TQC CC1000 Kit has eight cutting edges, that can be changes easily only by rotating the knife. The self positioning knife bracket will ensures equal pressure on the cutting knife.

Each TQC Cross Cut Adhesion Test KIT CC1000 contains a grip with cutter, a brush, an illuminated loupe and also a roll of adhesive tape acc. EN ISO 2409.

Secondly is TQC Cross Cut Adhesion Test KIT CC2000

TQC CC2000 Test KIT is use to test the adhesion of dry coats of paint on their substrate by means of a series of cuts through the coating.

Two series of parallel cuts cross angle to each other to obtain a pattern of 25 or 100 similar squares. The ruled area is evaluable by using a table chart after a short treatment with a stiff brush, or adhesive tape for hard substrates.

Because the cutting knife is very easy to exchange, and user friendly that why there is no use of extra tools. The self positioning knife bracket will ensures equal pressure on the cutting knife.

Each KIT CC2000 contains a grip with cutter, a brush, an illuminated loupe and also a roll of adhesive tape acc. ISO 2409.

Application area’s : Coating/Paint Industry, Galvanise, Automotive, Laboratory, Painters, Shipping Industry, Steel Protection, and also Wood.

Finally is TQC CC3000 TEST KIT

Through its extensive adjustment possibilities, this version is ideal if the test is perform by constantly changing persons.

The CC3000 test kit is use to test the adhesion of dry coats of paint on their substrate. By means of a series of cuts through the coating. Come with two series of parallel cuts cross angled to each other to obtain a pattern of 25 or 100 similar squares. The ruled area is evaluable by using a table chart. After a short treatment with a stiff brush, or adhesive tape for hard substrates.

FEATURES
