FS-CDT-ASTM D1781 Climbing Drum Peel Fixture
The climbing drum peel fixture consists of a drum assembly, flexible loading straps mounted on the bottom of the stand and a drum clamp to hold the outer skin against the face of the drum. During a test the loading straps pull on the drum assembly, forcing it to rotate and climb along the length of the Aluminum panel. This motion peels the outer skin away from the core structure. The peel force is measured by the material testing system and the peel resistance between adhesive bonds is calculated. An upper self-closing clamp is required to grip the specimen.

FS-PL-ASTM D3167 Floating Roller Peel Fixture
The floating roller peel test allows a flexible substrate to be peeled apart gently from the rigid substance. Place one end of the specimen in the roller base of the floating roller peel fixture, use a manual vise or self-tightening grip on the other end to complete the test setup. Test is run in the tensile direction. The angle of separation is effective so that the test works well for substrates that are not as flexible and are unable to be bent to a 90 degree or 180 degree angle.
