Sandpaper Abrasion Wear Tester / MIL-T-5438 Spec
Norman Tool offers a solution for companies that need to perform sandpaper abrasion wear testing on a variety of materials, including the insulation around wires and cables (also called cable & wire abrasion wear testing, wire & cable rub testing, and/or insulation abrasion resistance testing). This is the MIL-T-5438 Spec and/or possibly the SAE J11288 Spec (and possibly others, see below). Testing the sandpaper abrasion wear characteristics of wire insulation or cable insulation is extremely important, because wires and cables often rub against moving or vibrating parts, housings, etc. If cable or wire insulation wears through, it can cause electronics to malfunction, or worse, create hazardous and dangerous situations. Norman Tool has multiple ways to perform automatic sandpaper wear testing on cable and wire insulation, depending on the size and type of cable or wire, and its potential rubbing or wear situation and environment. Traditionally, wire and cable insulation is tested using a specially formulated sandpaper and a unique automatic sandpaper abrasion wear tester. Norman Tool can provide test equipment that is comparable to this traditional sandpaper abrasion wear equipment, or custom equipment designed to meet your specific sandpaper abrasion wear needs. Contact us today to learn more about our sandpaper abrasion and wire and cable insulation abrasion wear test capabilities.
