The Ring-on-Block Friction and Wear Tester (Type 1) is designed to evaluate the wear resistance of metals, non-metallic materials (such as nylon, plastics), and coated surfaces under sliding friction conditions. You can simulate different working environments, including dry and lubricated friction, to study material wear behavior. The device features a color touchscreen for real-time display of test parameters and data curves, facilitating detailed analysis.
You can use this tester to:
Test the friction and wear performance of metals, non-metals, and coated materials
Simulate dry, wet, or other friction conditions
Support research and development, quality control, and material performance evaluation
Apply in industrial testing, laboratories, and scientific research institutions
