Toyota Specialized Abrasion Tester

The Toyota Specialized Abrasion Tester is designed to evaluate the abrasion resistance, color transfer, and surface durability of textiles, leather, plastics, and coatings. By applying controlled load, speed, and friction media, it simulates real-world wear caused by repeated rubbing, contact, or dragging. This tester supports material R&D, quality control, and batch inspection, ensuring durability and appearance retention in automotive, textile, and coated materials.
