The Shoe Heel Impact Fatigue Tester is designed to evaluate the resistance of footwear heels (high heels, mid-heels, and other styles) to repeated dynamic impacts, simulating real-world walking or running forces. It provides objective quantitative data on the heel’s durability, enabling manufacturers and researchers to optimize design, verify quality, and assess continuous stress tolerance.
Applications
The tester is suitable for evaluating heel durability in:
(1) High-heeled shoes: Women’s fashion and formal heels.
(2) Mid-heeled footwear: Office shoes and casual heels.
(3) Low-heeled shoes with defined heel: Loafers, sandals, and booties.
(4) Children’s footwear with heels: School or formal shoes.
(5) Footwear R&D: Testing new heel materials, designs, and cushioning systems.
(6) Footwear quality control: Production inspection for heel fatigue performance.
Standards
(1) BS 5131 — British Standard for Footwear Heel Impact Test
(2) SATRA TM21 — Footwear Heel Impact Fatigue Testing
(3) EN ISO 20344 — Personal Protective Equipment — Footwear — Test Methods
(4) ASTM F1976 — Standard Test Method for Heel Impact Resistance
(5) GB/T 20991 — Test Methods for Personal Protective Equipment Shoes
Features
(1) Measures the resistance of footwear heels to repeated impacts and fatigue.
(2) Simulates real-world walking and running forces for realistic evaluation.
(3) Provides objective quantitative results, including number of cycles until heel failure.
