ASTM F2497-05 -Standard Testing Instruments

ASTM F2497 defines how to determine scuff resistance of printed and coated packaging materials when subjected to controlled rubbing. The test is used to evaluate the abrasion resistance of labels, cartons, films, or printed surfaces during handling, stacking, shipping, and retail display. It is commonly found along with packaging, printing, and converting applications where surface appearance and printability are of significance for product presentation. Presto Instruments offers advanced scuff resistance testers suitable for ASTM F2497 testing applications. These machines support controlled rubbing cycles and accurate evaluation of surface wear performance. Presto Instruments helps manufacturers study print durability and maintain packaging quality during transportation and storage conditions.
