Skid resistance and friction tester
Skid resistance and friction tester 48-B0192

48-B0192/48-B0191/48-B0190

The Pendulum Skid Tester measures the frictional resistance between a rubber slider mounted on the end of a pendulum arm and the test surface. This provides highway engineers with a routine method of checking the resistance of wet and dry surfaces to slipping and skidding, both in the lab and on site.
