Product Description:

The BGD 500 Digital Pull-Off Adhesion Tester is a compact, precision tool engineered to quantitatively measure coating adhesion strength. Ideal for evaluating how strongly coatings bond to metal, concrete, or other substrates, it replaces subjective test methods with accurate, repeatable tensile force measurements.

Using a hydraulic pressure system, this tester pulls a bonded dolly perpendicular to the surface until failure occurs. A real-time digital LCD displays pressure values, with readings available in MPa or psi, and results traceable to specific dolly sizes and rates.

Designed for laboratory and field use, it conforms to multiple international standards including ASTM D4541, ISO 4624, EN 13144, and ISO 16276. Optional automatic versions feature PID-controlled hydraulic systems and touchscreen interfaces for advanced data handling.

Whether in R&D, production QA, or site inspections, the BGD 500 provides essential data for coating reliability and quality control.
