The Automotive Coating Scratch Tester is a precision instrument designed to evaluate the scratch resistance of automotive coatings. It is suitable for single-layer or multilayer painted panels and uses controlled ball-ended steel needles under defined loads to assess coating durability. The tester provides reproducible, quantitative data on scratch resistance, supporting R&D, quality control, and comparative evaluation of automotive surface coatings.
Standards
The instrument complies with international and national standards for coating and mechanical surface testing:
ISO 1518 – Paints and varnishes – Determination of scratch resistance
IEC 60950‑1 – Information technology equipment – Safety, Part 1: General requirements (mechanical strength and scratch resistance of enclosures)
IEC 60335‑1 – Household and similar electrical appliances – Safety, Part 1: General requirements (mechanical strength and surface scratch resistance)
BS 3900 – Paint test methods, including scratch and abrasion performance
ASTM D5178 – Test method for scratch resistance using a linear scratch device
ASTM D2197 – Test method for resistance of organic coatings to abrasion
GB 4943.1‑2011 – Safety of information technology equipment, Part 1 (scratch and mechanical performance of enclosures)
GB 4706.1‑2014 – Safety of household and similar electrical appliances, Part 1 (scratch resistance and mechanical strength of enclosures)
