Triple Cut Specimen Shear [part# 980104-11]
Uniform specimen size is critical for repeatable and reproducible test results. The TABER® Triple Cut Specimen Shear will prepare consistent specimens for most materials up to 0.020" in thickness. The standard specimen size is 1 1/2" x 2 3/4". For test ranges 1 or 2, specimens must be rotated 90 degrees and cut a second time to obtain the required 1 1/2" x 1 1/2" sample size.

 

Ratchet Stop Roller [part# 130240]
Now standard on all models of TABER Stiffness Testers, the Ratchet Stop Roller greatly reduces the potential for inter-operator error caused by over or under-tightening. The travel on the right hand assembly automatically stops when the roller contacts the specimen. This allows the operator to precisely set the distance between the specimen and roller, which results in improved test set-up. This accessory can be retrofitted on any TABER Stiffness Tester.

Sensitivity Range Attachment [part# 980150-14]
The Sensitivity Range Attachment (also referred to as SR or High Sensitivity Attachment) is used to test the stiffness of extremely lightweight materials including cellophane, natural fibers, synthetic filaments, metallic foils, and more.
A 1 ½" x 1 ½" specimen is mounted between a set of pin holders, which replace the rollers. Use of this attachment requires the Compensator Range Weight.

Wire / Tube Testing Apparatus [part# 131030]
Designed to test cylindrical specimen materials, this accessory securely holds samples up to 4mm in diameter without any deformation. Each apparatus includes a top and bottom gauge block, which is customized to the diameter of your specimen.

 

Range Weights
To test specimens below 10 stiffness units, the Compensator Range Weight is required. Specimens above 100 stiffness units require additional range weights as determined by the test set-up chart.

  • Replacement Compensator Range Weight - 10 Taber Units [part# 120815]
  • Replacement Range Weight - 500 Taber Units [part# 120753]
  • Replacement Range Weight - 1000 Taber Units [part# 120752]
  • Replacement Range Weight - 2000 Taber Units [part# 120751]
  • Auxiliary Range Weight Set - range 3000 - 5000 Taber Units [part# 125656]
  • Case for Range Weights [part# 120888]

 

Calibration Specimens
To confirm the proper operation of your Stiffness Tester, TABER offers five spring steel calibration specimens. Each specimen is electro-etched with the exact rating before leaving the factory.

  • Calibration Specimen 62 [part# 125390-1]
  • Calibration Specimen 225 [part# 125390-2]
  • Calibration Specimen 440 [part# 125390-3]
  • Calibration Specimen 565 [part# 125390-4]
  • Calibration Specimen 1060 [part# 125390-5]

 

6mm Clamp Jaw Upgrade [part# 1125762]
Increase the specimen thickness of older model Stiffness Testers with an upgrade to the 6mm Clamp Jaws. These jaws allow you to increase specimen thickness from a maximum 0.125" to 0.219", and are standard on all current models.


Step-Down Transformer (220/110V) [part# 112954]
The Step-Down Transformer is required to operate the TABER Stiffness Tester Model 150-B at 220V.
