Product Description:

Qualtech Products Industry Crockmeter for Leather is a professional Automatic Rotary Crockmeter for Leather and Upper Materials to instantly determine the Color Fastness, the Color Transfer and Color Staining of dyes and prints on leather subjected to Rotational Dry Rubbing or Rotational Wet Abrasion at the touch of a button.

The Circular Color Fastness Test is performed by the textile industry and by the leather industry when dyeing fabrics and textiles and leather. The Color Fastness indicates the resistance of colors to fade, to stain or to transfer from one leather sample to another leather sample by Rotary Dry Rubbing or Rotary Wet Rubbing. The Color Fastness is a direct indicator of the adhesive force of dye and the leather sample and is especially relevant in the clothing industry, the shoe manufacturing industry and the leather industry to determine the resistance of colors to washing, detergents, abrasion and light exposure in daily use of the leather product.

The Color Fastness Test is divided in three categories:

• Abrasion Fastness
• Wash Fastness
• Light Exposure Fastness

The Color Fastness Test evaluates three main objectives:

• Color Staining
• Color Transfer
• Color Fading
