Fastening Tape Tester - TNG1101

The TNG1101 Fastening Tape Tester is designed to evaluate the fatigue performance of fastening tapes according to BS EN ISO 22776 and SATRA TM 123. The instrument simulates repeated stripping and peeling actions to determine the durability of hook-and-loop fasteners. It applies to materials such as hook and loop fastening tapes used in garments, footwear, and other textile applications. The tester features two rollers with specified diameters and widths, a roller speed of 60±5 revolutions per minute, and a loading force of 1±0.1 N/mm. The test cycle count is set at 5,000 cycles, with a counter displaying the number of cycles completed. The machine operates on a power supply of 220/110 V at 50/60 Hz. The dimensions of the instrument are 460 mm in length, 520 mm in width, and 650 mm in height. The TNG1101 provides a reliable and consistent method for assessing the long-term performance of fastening tapes under simulated use conditions.

The fastening tape tester is widely used to determine the capability of hook & loop used in textile industries, such as shoes, garments, and so on. Besides, the fastening tester enjoys a wide application for its stable running and convenient operation. If you want to test the fastening tape, this instrument will be your good choice without a doubt.

The followings are the steps to carry out the test in order. First, cut the specimen 540mm by 20 or 50mm in dimension from the sample under test into the wheel of the fastening tape tester to be fitted completely. Next, make hooks & loops subject to repeated stripping and peeling a specific number of times. After the test, use a tensile machine (another purchase) to measure its peeling strength (AS) and shear strength (PA).

Precision and durability: fastening tape tester controlled by a PLC closed-loop controller.

Safety and convenience: a transparent plastic cover allows engineers to see the test process and ensures safety.

Stable and quiet operation: this machine is equipped with rigid construction and advanced AC servomotors.

Simple to use and acquire test data: values are displayed in direct digital form, making it easy to read test results.

Test principle

Mount the hook-type and ring-type parts of the specimen on the two rollers of this velcro fatigue tester. Then make them stick together under the specified load. After a certain number of forward and reverse rotations, remove the specimen in the tensile tester when they do not stick together. Finally, you can obtain the adhesive force and adhesive strength of the specimen.

What Should Pay attention to When we use Fastening Tape?

We should try every effort to avoid the fastening tape from soaking in water for a long time. Moreover, we should be careful to prevent dust and stay away from high-temperature objects when using fastening tape. After a long time of use, some dust and plush will adhere to the back adhesive buckle. Therefore, they should be cleaned up in time. If not, this dust and plush can easily damage the nylon hook, thus making the tearing effect worse, and affecting the service life of the fastening tape directly.

Advantages of Fastening Tape Fastening tape, also known as nylon self-gripping fastener, is a kind of accessory for clothing collocation. It is not only simple to operate, but also improves the performance of clothing, and makes the clothing look more beautiful and practical so a lot of clothes use fastening tape instead of cumbersome buttons and belts. Velcro is a kind of very environmental protection textile accessory, which is anti-washing, anti-sunlight, easy to use, and has no harm to the human body, so it has become a very important part of clothing. What is a Fastening Tape Tester? Fastening tape is widely used in clothing, backpack, tent, shoes, and hats due to its simple use, high viscosity, and washing resistance. Besides, different requirements for adhesive stability are put forward for different industries.
