The ICI pilling tester is a device used to evaluate the pilling or snagging resistance of fabrics. It measures the fabric’s tendency to develop small balls or snags of fibers on its surface, which can occur due to friction from various factors such as wearing, washing, or rubbing against other surfaces.
By subjecting the fabric to controlled rubbing, the tester helps determine its durability and ability to resist such pilling or snagging. This evaluation assists manufacturers and consumers in selecting fabrics suitable for different applications, ensuring quality and longevity.
Operational Procedure
- Place the test sample onto a polyurethane tube, and then put into a square rolling box with a cork liner.
- The roller box rolls to the specified number of times at a constant speed.
- Then take out the sample and compare it with the standard photo to evaluate its pilling and snagging level.
