Oakland BRB-900A Block Re-block Force Tester
The Oakland BRB-900A is a stand-alone instrument designed to measure the undesired static adhesion which can exist between layers of certain types of plastic films. The Model BRB-900A utilizes a compact mechanical balancing system that incrementally adds weight equivalent to 90 ml per minute of water. The BRB-900A Tester features a magnetic clamp to securely hold the sample in place, eliminating the need for tape. The force required for separation is shown in tenths of a gram force on an onboard display. All variables are monitored electronically to maximize accuracy and repeatability. The measurement range is commonly referred to as very low to mid-range blocking force (10 gf to 210 gf).

Oakland Block Re-block Fixture for Universal Tester
Oakland’s Universal testers (MT-1500 and SR-1500 series) can be outfitted with parallel plates to measure medium to high blocking force. The standard MT-2500 software includes the procedure to measure Blocking Load by Parallel Plate Method. The measurement range is commonly referred to as low to upper range blocking force (50 gf to 23 Kgf).
Fixture requires Oakland’s MT-1500 series Universal tester outfitted with 23 Kgf (50 lbf) load cell.
