Grit Feeder Attachments

Provide a unique method to evaluate 3-body abrasion resistance on a variety of materials. Aluminum Oxide grit particles are evenly distributed onto the specimen wear path, and pass under a pair of leather wheels. This loose grit acts as an abradant and aids in the rolling action that contributes to the physical breakdown of materials. The Abraser Vacuum is attached to the grit feeder, and continuously removes both abraded material and used grit.

Two versions are available, the Model 155 (shown) and the Model 255. The Model 155 uses an alignment guide screw to set the position of the instrument. Grit distributor and vacuum removal nozzle heights are adjusted using a thumbscrew. Whereas, an alignment block isincorporated into the base of Model 255, to ensure the correct location of the grit feeder in relation to the Abraser.

Both models are supplied complete with:

  • Leather Wheel Set (S-39)
  • Standardization Plates (S-38)
  • #240 Aluminum Oxide (S-41)
  • Alignment Guide and Mounting Hardware

Quick Release Wheel Hub

An expandable collet hub design permits quick wheel mounting. Activated by a push button, a spring-loaded, beveled retaining nut provides a positive locking force on the hub retaining lip making certain that wheels remain securely fastened until disengaged. By eliminating the left and right hand locking nuts, the viewing area of the test specimen is increased and interference with the vacuum pick-up nozzle is eliminated.
