The Model 2876 Shear Test Machine to provide the means to evaluate the bond strength of friction material pad assemblies for passenger car and medium truck disc brake pads.
This machine is designed to perform the SAE J840 Test Procedure. A normal load is applied such that friction force is minimized and does not significantly affect shear load.
Fixtures are utilized to match radius at lining contact. ProLink software provides machine control and provides presentation of results, mean shear strength and range.
