TESTEX Surface Water Absorption Tester TF167
Specimens are placed at an angle on the base of the apparatus. After water flows down the surface of each specimen, the amount of water retained in each specimen is measured. Six specimens are tested, three on the face of the fabric and three on the back of the fabric. The six observations are averaged to determine the surface water absorption of the fabric.
