Cross Cut tester NK2000
The NK2000 cross hatch cutter from NEURTEK is a professional tool designed for performing adhesion tests on paints and coatings, in compliance with major international standards. Manufactured using advanced 3D printing (additive manufacturing), it offers improved precision, safety, and user comfort.
What is the cross hatch adhesion test?
The cross hatch adhesion test involves making a series of cuts in the coating to form a grid pattern that reaches the substrate. The area is then brushed clean, and a standardized adhesive tape is applied and peeled off. The degree of coating detachment is evaluated under a magnifier.
This test is used to assess:
- The adhesion of paint to the substrate.
- The bonding between different coating layers.
- The quality of application or curing of the coating.
Fully compliant with international standards
The NK2000 cross hatch cutter meets the following standards:
- ISO 2409.
- ASTM D3359.
- DIN 53151.
- Also compatible with Volkswagen, Renault, Ford, and General Motors specifications.
Improved design for safer and more comfortable use
NEURTEK has redesigned this adhesion tester with practical enhancements:
- Ergonomic handle ensures correct grip and test angle as specified in standards.
- Quick and safe blade replacement.
- 3D-printed construction for lightweight durability and high precision.
Wide range of blades available
The NK2000 adapts to different coating thicknesses with interchangeable blades:
- Blades with 1, 2, 3, or 4 steps (6 cuts) for coatings from 0 to >250 microns.
- 1 mm / 11-cut blade available for special applications.
