Standard
ASTM F1044
Standard Test Method for Shear Testing of Calcium Phosphate Coatings and Metallic Coatings
This test method covers shear testing of continuous calcium phosphate coatings and metallic coatings adhering to dense metal substrates at ambient temperatures. It assesses the degree of adhesion of coatings to substrates, or the internal cohesion of a coating in shear, parallel to the surface plane.
Our Testing Services
When choosing a medical device testing laboratory to perform evaluations, there are four key elements to consider:
- Interaction with a senior engineer to review the intricacies of the device and to ensure the proposed testing will address corporate goals and objectives
- Accurate implementation of the testing standard(s)
- Comprehensive reporting of the materials, procedures and data to align with ASTM/ISO and USFDA reporting requirements
- Regularly scheduled and documented verification, calibration and maintenance of testing equipment
ORL does all of the above, always has, and laid the groundwork for many of today’s active standards!
