Description
Description
When a coated panel is bent tightly around a cylinder of known diameter, the damage caused by distending the coating may be evaluated. Panels of a variety of fl exible materials, including steel to 1/32“ thick, may be used with the BYK­Gardner Mandrel Set.
After bending the coated panel, the fl exibility of the coating is indicated by the nature and extent of cracking and fl aking and the radius of curvature required to produce these fl aws. Similarly, the fi lm‘s adhesion may be rated by the extent to which the loosened fl akes or chips of the damaged fi lm have adhered to the substrate, or separated from it, during or after the bending. It may also be desired to bend uncoated panels of certain materials and then examine their surfaces for signs of damage.
