Frictional properties of fabrics are important when evaluating the interaction of surfaces, primarily the clothing material and the human body. Model 32-07 Slip and Friction tester is designed to measure Static and Kinetic frictional properties for a variety of materials including textiles and non-wovens.
Frictional and surface roughness characteristics are typically determined by measuring the resistance to motion between two surfaces either fabric to fabric or fabric to metal.
Fabric friction can aide in quantifying fabric performance properties such as abrasion, wear and comfor
