Peel Adhesion Tester – Horizontal
Model KPAH-100 (A) | Basic Peel & Release Tester for PSA Tapes
The Katpot Systems Horizontal Peel & Release Tester – Basic Model is designed to measure peel adhesion strength and release force of pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) materials such as tapes, labels, liners, and laminates.
This model operates horizontally at a fixed 180° peel angle, suitable for peel and release liner testing.
Ideal for production QC labs that require quick, accurate peel and release results without software connectivity.
Ensures compliance with ASTM D3330, PSTC 101 / 4, and FINAT FTM 1 & 2 test methods.
Advanced Features
- Measures both peel adhesion & release force.
- Fixed 180° geometry ensures standard-compliant results.
- Easy-to-read digital load display.
- Simple push-button operation, ideal for QC environments.
- Rugged structure for long-term, high-frequency testing.
- Quick sample mounting system for fast testing cycles.
- Maintenance-free mechanical design.
Product Importance
- Evaluates adhesive bond strength and liner release characteristics.
- Ensures consistency in coating quality, adhesive thickness, and curing.
- Prevents product issues like over-release, liner tearing, and weak bond formation.
- Essential for maintaining batch-to-batch consistency and verifying incoming raw materials.
- Supports quality assurance for tape manufacturing, label converting, and film packaging lines.
