Adhesion Testing

Adhesion Testing covers a broad category of tension and compression testing across a wide range of different industries and materials. Adhesion Testers generally focus on the bond strength between two materials via some type of coating such as tape, glue, or gels. United offers a wide range of solutions for Adhesion Testing applications when the measurement involves applying tension or compression loads. Common standards are listed below.
