Crockmeters for Color Fastness to Rubbing of Textiles
Product Overview
Crockmeters, available in both manual & electronic versions, are essential tools for testing the colorfastness of textiles through rubbing tests. Designed to assess fabric resistance to abrasion, these devices offer reliable, repeatable results for quality control. Alongside these models, the Rotary Crockmeter further enhances testing capabilities with its circular motion, providing an additional method for evaluating colorfastness. Together, these tools ensure industries maintain high standards of color retention and durability in fabric testing.
