CAPITAL TESTING ADDS TYPE I SHEAR TESTING TO GROWING LIST OF CAPABILITIES
Josh Hosen • Jul 22, 2020
DOES YOUR EXTERIOR GRADE DECORATIVE PLYWOOD OR ADHESIVE MEET TYPE I SPECIFICATIONS?
Capital Testing now offers Type I glue bond evaluation per Section 4.3 and 4.4 of the ANSI/HPVA HP-1 decorative plywood standard. Performed in-house on our 11,000 lb capacity Instron Universal Testing Machine, we use Dry Shear and Cyclic Boil Shear tests to verify your product performs in situations where water resistance is critical. If you are selling your decorative plywood or adhesive as Type I rated, make sure you have third party test data to back up the claim!
