Skid Resistance Tester

The Pendulum Skid Tester measures the frictional resistance between a
rubber slider mounted on the end of a pendulum arm and the test surface.
This provides highway engineers with a routine method of checking the
resistance of wet and dry surfaces to slipping and skidding, both in the lab and
on site. It is based on the Izod principle: a pendulum rotates about a spindle
attached to a vertical pillar. At the end of the tubular arm a head of known
mass is fitted with a rubber slider.

The pendulum is released from a horizontal position so that it strikes the
sample surface with a constant velocity. The distance travelled by the head
after striking the sample is determined by the friction of the sample surface.A
reading of Skid Resistance is obtained.
