The James Bond Tester™ MK III or pull off adhesion test measures the bond strength or tensile strength of concrete, asphalt, tile, concrete repair, or other overlay material by the direct tension or pull off method. By pulling a 25mm steel disk attached to the material under the unit can,
- Measure the near surface strength of a substrate in order to determine the substrates quality before applying an overlay
- Determine the bond strength of a repair or overlay material after it is applied to the substrate
- Determine the tensile strength of a repair, overlay or adhesive after the material is applied to the surface
The James Bond Tester™ MK III has been successfully used to verify the quality of existing materials, determine the adhesion strength of shotcrete, tile, epoxies, paint and other repair materials or coatings.
- Each System comes with 10, 50mm 2 inch, ASTM Standard 1583 - 04 stainless steel disks
- Customers who purchase this may also need the T-M-170 Moisture Master or T-HT-1000 Humitest for substrate moisture testing
· Accurate bond strength of repair mortars, epoxy resins, laminates, overlays, and other coatings.
· Calibrated gauge with maximum load indicator and mechanical damping.
· Ball Joint Design for rapid testing as well as assuring direct tensile loading
· Adjustable alignment plate with built in leveling facility for both vertical and horizontal pulls.
· Compact design.
· Easy to use.
