Product catalog summary
Technical Description
The SledCutter 295 XVII is a device designed for conducting standardized cross-cut tests to evaluate the adhesion quality of coatings on various substrates. It features four independent cutting edges and is known for its high economic efficiency.

Principle of Testing
The cross-cut test assesses the adhesion of a coating, which is crucial for corrosion protection. The test involves creating a grid pattern on the coating and evaluating how the coating detaches from the substrate.

Purpose and Application
The SledCutter 295 XVII allows for precise application of cross-cut grids on coated test panels. It overcomes limitations of manual tools by providing adjustable cutting force and precise cutting angles. The device is tabletop, with a linear guide and adjustable load arm.

Test Principle
The test involves setting a desired scratching force, applying the multi-cut adapter, and pulling the carriage to create cuts. The panel is rotated for a second cut, and the resulting pattern is visually evaluated against standards.

Technical Data
Dimensions: 600 x 400 x 240 mm
Weight: 18 kg
Scratching force: 2 - 40 N (up to 60 N with additional weight)
Max scratch length: 220 mm
Max panel dimensions: 300 x 200 x 20 mm

Order Information
The SledCutter 295 XVII comes with a multi-cut adapter, a choice of cutters, adjustable support weight, and other accessories. Additional cutters and a manufacturer's test certificate are available.

Standards and Classifications
The device complies with various standards, including EN ISO 2409 and ASTM D 3359. The cross-cut classifications range from 0 (no coating loss) to 5 (significant coating loss).

Additional Information
The document also references the CrossScan 295 XVI, an automatic system for evaluating cross-cut tests.

Principle of Testing The adhesion of a coating on a base material is not only a mechanical property defining the bond between coating and substrate, but it is also of particular importance with regard to the corrosion protection, since areas of poor adhesion can easily be affected by corrosion. For many years already the cross cutting is the best known and the most frequently used adhesion test method for different coating materials on various substrates! The standardised cross-cut test provides a very straight forward method of establishing the adhesion quality. Purpose and Application The SledCutter...

Technical Data The square pattern that is obtained can be evaluated visually by examining the way in which the coating has broken away from the base material (along the cutting edges and/or complete squares),and this can be compared with schematic representations in the standard. The result will be furnished with a judgement scale’s code (e.g. with the aid of the evaluation table in accordance with EN ISO 2409 on the last page of Dimensions (LxWxH) approx. 600 x 400 x 240 mm Scratching force approx. 2 - 40 N (with additional weight approx. 60 N) Max. scratch length approx. 220 mm Max. dimensions...

11 Since 1994, the European standard EN ISO 2409 replaces the national standards DIN 53151, BS 3900:E6, NF T 30-38, NEN 5337 and SIS 184172. 4) The cross hatch test is intensified by a subsequent deep drawing test acc. to EN ISO 1520, which can be performed using the ERIChSeN Cupping Test Machines, Models 200 and 202 EM Determination of Cross Hatch Cut Classifications Cuts’ appearance Please also request our literature for the CrossScan 295 XVI.
