BAS-524 – SKID RESISTANCE AND FRICTION TESTER
This device is suitable for both site and laboratory applications and is designed to perform two different types of tests:
-
Measurement of friction and skid resistance properties of road asphalt surfaces
-
Polished Stone Value (PSV) tests on aggregates (curved specimens) obtained from accelerated polishing tests
The skid resistance test device (Skid Tester) is also suitable for testing the following materials in accordance with these standards:
-
Natural stones conforming to EN 1341 and EN 1342
-
Concrete block pavers conforming to EN 1338
Standards:
Key Features of the Device:
-
Operating Principle: The device measures the energy loss generated when a rubber slider edge is propelled across the surface under test.
-
Height Adjustment: The height adjustment system is simple and reliable.
-
High Precision: The pointer made of light alloy has extremely low friction, providing highly precise results.
-
Advanced Mechanism: The pendulum arm release mechanism features an original design that minimizes friction and enhances measurement accuracy.
