How ASTM D1894 Coefficient Of Friction Tester Works

The coefficient of friction test is conducted by placing a sample material on the testing platform while a sled of a specific weight moves across the surface. The system measures the force required to initiate movement (static coefficient) and the force required to maintain movement (kinetic coefficient). The results help manufacturers optimize material selection and production processes.
