Schildknecht Flexing Tester TF117B

The Schildknecht Flexing Tester is a reliable and precise instrument for evaluating the resistance of coated fabrics to damage caused by flexing due to oscillation at a rate of 500 times per minute. It is capable of accommodating up to 10 specimens at a time, and comes equipped with a convenient resettable electronic counter to record the number of cycles.

When testing the Compression-folding (Schildknecht) flex cracking resistance of medical protective clothing, passing this test is a critical step before proceeding to the next test with the Hydrostatic Head Tester, which assesses the material’s water penetration under pressure. By passing both tests, you can be confident that the protective clothing meets the required standards for quality and durability.
