Slip and Friction Tester 32-07 For over 30 years, the TMI Group has a history of producing reliable, accurate and robust testing instruments for measuring Coefficient of Friction. The Model 32-07 is our latest design offering advanced features for measuring and automatically calculating Static and Kinetic Coefficient of Friction. The Slip and Friction tester is designed to measure the sliding resistance of sheet like materials including Plastic Film, Packaging Film Laminates, Paper, Paperboard and Coated surfaces. Slip and Friction testing aids in the evaluation of chemicals and additives used to create or minimize the degree of friction between two contacting test specimens.
