Overview:
Our Flexural Endurance Test evaluates a material’s resistance to repeated bending or flexing, simulating long-term wear and use. This test is essential for materials such as leather, coated fabrics, synthetic materials, and footwear components where repeated motion is expected over the product’s lifecycle.

Test Description:
Material specimens are subjected to controlled flexing cycles using a flexometer under defined environmental conditions. The test measures how well a material can resist cracking, creasing, or mechanical degradation when flexed repeatedly.

Purpose & Benefits:

• Assess durability and fatigue resistance under repeated mechanical stress
• Predict material lifespan and failure modes in bending applications
• Aid in material selection and quality assurance for demanding environments
• Ensure product reliability in industries where flex endurance is critical

Industries Served:

• Footwear and Leather Goods
