Lower clamping pliers, accessories, stable clamping, easy to use;

The spring design of the hidden center greatly improves the pinning force and ensures the repeatability of the test; 

Upper clamping pliers, equipped with a variety of clamps, suitable for different button samples; 

It is the most convenient design and can reduce the damage of the sample due to slippage during the test process. 


The operation of the pull tester machine: 

1. Install the fixture, cooperate with the button to be tested, and lock the test sample to the base 

2. Put down the fixture, grasp the button and pull it upward, each set of buttons must bear at least 17 pounds of pulling force (ie 7.72 kg) and need to hold for 10 seconds without any signs of loosening or breakage, and 20 buttons of each type must be tested at the same time to be considered qualified. 

3. If one of the buttons is loose or damaged, or after replacement, all of them must be re-inspected. 


Routine maintenance and maintenance: 

Do not use overloading, the rated load of this pull tester machine is 300N; 

Pay attention to daily maintenance work and keep all parts of the instrument clean; 

When the snap button pull strength tester is sluggish and inflexible during use, please contact the bearings on both sides of the machine. Add a little oil to the oil hole on the seat to lubricate. Please contact our company in time when the machine fails.
