Cross Cut Guide Plate Adhesion Tester 1mm 1.5mm 2mm 3mm

Product Features & Attributes
This cross cut guide plate is used for cross cut adhesion testing of organic coatings, suitable for testing plastic and wooden furniture surface coatings (thickness <250μm), as well as adhesion strength testing of sprayed or electroplated products.

Working Principle: Place the guide plate on the coating surface, cut along the guide grooves evenly using a cutting tool to form a grid pattern. Apply standard test tape (3M 610-1PK) and peel off. Observe coating peeling from substrate and evaluate adhesion grade by classification standards.

Applications:

• Plastic and wooden furniture coating adhesion testing

• Sprayed product surface adhesion testing

• Electroplated product surface adhesion testing

• Primer-topcoat intercoat adhesion testing

Four Spacing Specifications Available:

Technical Parameters:

• Cut length: 35mm

• Number of cuts: 11

Operation Steps:

1. Place test panel on flat rigid surface

2. Position guide plate firmly on coating surface

3. Cut along grooves at 20~50mm/s with uniform pressure

4. Rotate guide plate 90°, repeat to form cross-hatch grid

5. Clean debris with soft brush

6. Apply 3M 610-1PK tape over grid, peel off at small angle

7. Evaluate coating peeling and determine adhesion grade

Precautions:

• Cuts must penetrate coating without cutting too deep into substrate

• Test invalid if coating too thick/hard to penetrate

• Test at 23±2℃, 50±5%RH

• Must use 3M 610-1PK test tape (user supplied)

Maintenance:

• Clean and apply light rust-proof oil after use

• Lubricate moving parts regularly

• Remove batteries for long-term storage

Available in four spacing specifications: 1mm, 1.5mm, 2mm, 3mm to suit different film thicknesses and testing standards.

Mainly used in furniture manufacturers, plastic product factories, coating contractors, electroplating plants, quality inspection institutions, research universities, and more for coating adhesion testing.
