ForceBoard™ – Precision Friction Tester with unmatched friction testing functionality 

ForceBoard™ is a precision friction tester that allows you to conduct friction testing on a wide range of materials, surfaces, and components. It measures both static and dynamic coefficients of friction with ease, making it one of the most versatile coefficient of friction testers and tribometers available. It also allows you to study the COF's normal force dependency within seconds and it can be used to test friction according to ASTM D1894 and other international testing standards.

​

The applied load is easily controlled via the included pivot loading arm which can be adapted to fit your specific test sample geometry.

​

Friction tests can be performed in both dry, lubricated or even submerged conditions via our easy to use test fixtures.

In addition to friction testing, the system offers linear wear and scratch testing. It comes with easy-to-use Windows software for real-time measurements, graphing, and exporting to Excel and other data analysis tools along with a 100% user satisfaction guarantee.

Simple, precise and versatile - a friction tester has never been easier to operate.
