4-station Leather Rubbing Color Fastness Tester - Test Equipment
Applicable Standards
The tester adheres to global colorfastness and material testing protocols, including:
ISO 11640(Leather – Color fastness to rubbing)
SATRA TM170(Standard method for color fastness to rubbing)
AATCC 8(Colorfastness to Crocking: AATCC Crockmeter Method)
ISO 105-X12(Textiles – Color fastness to rubbing)
GB/T 3920(China’s national standard for color fastness to rubbing)
These standards ensure consistent evaluation of color transfer, dye adhesion, and surface durability.
Working Principle
The tester operates viacontrolled mechanical abrasion:
Sample Mounting: Leather or fabric specimens are clamped into 4 individual stations.
Friction Head Application: A weighted abrading cloth (9 N load) moves back and forth across the sample surface.
Cycle Execution: The machine completes 50–100 cycles (customizable) to simulate wear.
Color Assessment: Post-test, the abrading cloth is evaluated for dye transfer using agray scale (AATCC EP1. ISO 105-A03)or spectrophotometer.
Test Principle & Applications
Color Fastness Evaluation (ISO 11640/AATCC 8):
The abrading cloth is rated on a 1–5 gray scale (1 = severe staining, 5 = no transfer).
Pass/fail criteria depend on industry standards (e.g., ≥4 for automotive upholstery).
Key Industries
Leather Goods: Validating color retention in handbags, shoes, and furniture.
Automotive: Testing seat covers, steering wheels, and interior trims.
Apparel: Assessing dye stability in jackets, gloves, and accessories.
The 4-Station Leather Friction Color Fastness Tester streamlines quality control, enabling manufacturers to optimize formulations, reduce rejections, and meet regulatory compliance efficiently. Its multi-sample capability and adherence to global standards make it a cornerstone of material testing laboratories.
