Lastometer For Testing Lab Workshop.
Lastometer - For Testing Lab
The determination of distension and strength of grains of any leather
sample may conveniently be carried out with the help of the ball burst
test. In this test, a hemispherical hardened metallic tip is pressed
against one face of the leather disc held in a suitable non-slipping
grip and the force needed to make the tip pierce through the test
specimen determined to evaluate the grain strength. The distention of
leather at which the tip pierces through is also determined. The
apparatus used for this evaluation is called Lastometer.
