BATA BELT FLEX TESTER
Out soles of footwear or other flexing components may suffer racking in use due to flexing. Cracks usually develop at points of high surface strain resulting from the design of the sole pattern, without there being any cuts to initiates them. The Belt Flex Tester is designed to flex complete soles with their patterns intact in a manner similar to those encountered in actual use. Tests carried out using it provide a guide to the risk of such cracks developing during use.
