Evaluating bending performance of plugs and cord outlets | PLUG FLEXING TESTER / No.254

Overview of PLUG FLEXING TESTER

This tester is used to test the bending endurance of plugs. Hanging prescript weight on one end of the plug and repeatedly bending the other end 60° back and forth for a prescript number of times.
After a prescript number of times the plug has been bended, the operator is to check the disconnection rate of the plug to determine the bend stress strength.
Also, to test chloride insulating cables, the plug will be flexed left and right repeatedly at a 90° angle.
