Are your adhesives strong enough to withstand high peels?

Are your adhesives strong enough to withstand high peels?
  • Gaurav Malhotra

Adhesives are used in a variety of industries for bonding two surfaces together. The strength of the bond is important to ensure the safety and efficiency of products. One way to test the strength of an adhesive is to measure its peel strength. The results of this test can help determine if an adhesive is suitable for its intended application or not. Presto is a leading manufacturer of lab testing instruments and is working in the same industry for the past 40 years. The expert team of technical engineers has designed a high-quality peel/seal/bond and adhesion strength tester that is used to quantify the permanence of adhesion or peel ability of self-adhesive pressure-sensitive materials. Here in this blog, we are going to discuss brief information about the peel strength tester and how this lab testing instrument is useful in testing the peel ability of adhesives. But before that, let us focus on peel strength and why it is important for you to test the peel strength of the materials.

 

What is peel strength and why is it important for you to test the peel strength of materials?

The peel strength of an adhesive is a measure of its ability to resist being pulled apart. It is an important property to consider when choosing an adhesive for your application, as it can affect the bond strength and durability of the material.
 
When the adhesives will easily get pulled away from the substrate then it will lead to damage to the product easily. Thus, it is important for you to test the peel strength of the material and ensure that quality material will be delivered to the customers.
 
If the materials have high peel strength, then it will lead to less product damage as it will create a strong bond with the material. You can easily read more about the benefits of having a high peel strength of adhesives.
 
Presto is the leading peel tester manufacturer that offers this quality lab testing instrument at the best prices. Now, let us discuss how Presto peel strength testing machine will help to test the peel ability of materials.
 

How does Presto Peel/Seal / Bond and Adhesion Strength Tester help to test the peel ability of adhesives?

Different adhesives have different peel strengths, which is why it's important to test the peel strength of adhesives before using them. The stronger the adhesive, the better it will be at holding the material. Thus, it is important for you to test the peel ability of adhesives to ensure that quality products will be delivered to the customers.
 
Presto ASTM D903 peel strength tester is used to test the peel ability of materials by applying for a standardized test plate under specified conditions, from the plate at a specified angle and speed. This quality lab testing instrument is highly useful in the paper & package testing industry.  It has been embedded with high-end features that will help to evaluate the peeling ability of adhesives. Now, let us discuss the features and technical specifications of this quality lab testing equipment.
