Description
The Gehman Stiffness Tester evaluates stiffness or rubber at low temperature according to ISO 1432.
The testing operation is automatic and specimens are twisted by means of a wires of known torque at programmed test temperature.
The angle of twist produced at this time is detected and is sent to the data processing unit.
