The German BYK 5710 cylindrical bending tester (ISO version) helps you quickly determine the cracking, peeling, or other damage of coatings, measure the degree of bending or deformation of coating surfaces, and evaluate coating flexibility.

BYK 5710 Cylinder Bending Tester from Germany (ISO version)It is a simple and fast method for determining the elasticity of coatings. Simply place the coating test plate on a circular axis of known diameter and bend it, then inspect for cracking, peeling, or other damage to the coating.

BYK 5710 Cylinder Bending Tester from Germany (ISO version)
Made of anodized aluminum
There are 12 stainless steel bent rods
Measurable test panel with a width of 65 mm (2.56 in)
Bending rod diameter: 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,10,12,16,20,25,32mm

Measurement steps:

1. Apply the paint onto the metal plate
2. Carefully coat and dry it to ensure good reproducibility
During the experiment, apply even force within 1-2 seconds to bend the coated sample by 180 degrees
4. Starting from the large radius cylindrical axis, gradually decrease the radius test until the paint can be seen to break

exceptIn addition to the ISO version, there are also ASTM versions to choose from. If you have any requirements, please feel free to call to request relevant information.
