Product Details
The versatile PowerTear™ High Energy Elmendorf Tear Tester determines falling pendulum tearing strength by propagating a single-rip tear starting from a cut in a sample of paper, cardboard, plastic, or fabric, woven or nonwoven.
The versatility of the instrument allows the testing of both light and heavy weight samples while the sleek new design will enhance the look of any laboratory.
