Rimmed Specimen Holder (E140-75)
The E140-75 Rimmed Specimen Holder has a
9.53 mm
(0.375 inch)
raised rim for retaining
liquids during a test. A rubber pad is adhered to
the table to prevent specimens from slipping
during the test. This holder is used for wet
testing materials to determine the effect of
absorbed and / or surface moisture on abrasion
resistance. To prevent splash over on the
instrument, use only a sufficient amount of liquid
to cover the specimen. Specimens may be up
to 140mm
(5.5 inch)
diameter.
NOTE:
The vacuum is not used when conducting wet
tests.

Specimen Holder with Transparent Base
(E100-10)
This Transparent Base Holder (E100-10) is
manufactured with a transparent base and
recommended to be used with the E100-102
clamp ring. When evaluating textile specimens,
the table may be removed from the Abraser to
view the abraded specimen against a strong
light source to determine the worn condition of
the threads. This eliminates the need to remove
the specimen from the holder permitting the test
to be continued if desired.
NOTE:
This holder has also been used with a small,
high intensity light bulb located beneath the specimen
holder which activates a photocell and electronic relay
through the test material that turns off the Abraser
when the established wear point is reached.
