Calculate how hard it is to peel tape off a surface, separate the layers within a laminate, or unfasten a hook and loop. These testers are often used for prototyping and quality control with packaging and electronics to check the bond strength between two materials. To test, stick your sample onto the testing tray and secure one end of it to the force gauge above. The tray moves as the force gauge pulls your sample up, so the sample is always peeling at a 90° angle. Program your test settings on the display. You can start or stop the test manually, set it to run for a certain amount of time, or let the test run until your sample is completely peeled off. All testers meet ASTM standards for peel testing.

Use the USB cord to transfer data and view measurements with the included computer software. The software identifies the first peak, or the maximum force recorded when your material first starts to peel. It also generates graphs and makes it possible to export data into a CSV file.
