Obsnapmeter- Test Basic Cutter Adhesion Testers – Cross Cut Adhesion Tester – Cross Cut Adhesion

A manual cross-cut adhesion tester used to evaluate how well paint or coating adheres to a substrate by cutting a grid pattern through the coating, in accordance with international standards.

  • Standard-compliant: Meets ISO 2409 and ASTM D3359 requirements (model dependent).
  • Consistent cutting: Self-adjusting knife holder ensures uniform pressure during cuts.
  • Easy handling: Ergonomic handle with quick, tool-free blade replacement.
  • Versatile options: Multiple blade numbers and cutting distances for different coating thicknesses and substrates.

Description

The Obsnapmeter Test Basic Cutter Cross Cut Adhesion Tester is a practical and reliable tool designed to evaluate the adhesion of dry paint coatings to their substrates using the cross-cut method. The test is performed by making two series of parallel cuts that intersect at right angles, forming a grid of 25 or 100 small squares. After cutting, the ruled area is assessed using a standard evaluation chart, following light brushing or the application of adhesive tape, depending on the substrate hardness. This method provides a quick and standardized way to determine coating adhesion in accordance with ISO 2409 and ASTM D3359 requirements.
