FLEXING RESISTANCE

To measure the resistance to flexes on upholstery leathers

 

The oscillations of the Flexometer produce an artificial ageing on the test-piece in examination, simulating the mechanical stresses that happen during every-day use.

The Flexometer determines the resistance of leathers to flexes. 

 

The recommended number of resistance cycles, according to the current European Standard of upholstery leather characteristics, is 50.000 cycles with no cracks on the finish.
