In the military, it’s all about the details; every one counts, including the quality of the hook and loop fastener used to secure most gear/equipment. At Dongsanxin, we know the importance of being able to stand up to your straps through tough working conditions. This is why environmental testing is so important. This testing ensures the straps can stand up to varying temperatures, weather, saltwater, humidity, and even exposure to dust and sand.
How Extreme Temperatures Affect Hook and Loop Fasteners
Hook and Loop Strap, such as those made by Dongsanxin, must be able to withstand extreme cold and extreme heat. Straps can get brittle in cold and break. In fact, in hot weather it may lose its grip or melt. Testing requires the straps of the device to be put in extreme conditions to see if they still continue to work in the cold.
Assessing the Toughness of Watch Straps in Military Under Conditions of Extreme Weather Types of conditions
Military gears are frequently subjected to extreme weather such as heavy rain, snow, and strong winds. It’s important that the hook and loop straps don’t fall apart in these situations. What Dongsanxin does is test these straps by mimicking various weather in a lab and ensuring that they still work well post-wetting or post-freezing and thawing.
Investigating The Impact Of Saltwater On Tactical Hook And Loop Devices
Saltwater is very destructive and can corrode and degrade materials. For military equipment that will be used near or in the ocean, don’t let the hook and loop straps fail. At Dongsanxin, we bathe these straps in saltwater, then test their strength and durability to make sure they are at home in the marine environment.
High Humidity Testing of Hook and Loop Straps
High humidity can compromise hook and loop straps - sometimes even rendering the hook and loop non-stick! Our testing’s at Dongsanxin is to expose these straps to humid environment for a long time. We then test and see if it’s any worse for wear, making sure that humidity won’t damage the straps.
Reliability of Military Strap in Dusty and Sandy Environments
It’s very easy for dust and sand to get into the tiny components of hook-and-loop straps, and even cause the straps to fail. This is of particular worry in desert settings. We test these straps at Dongsanxin Manufacturer by applying them under sand, and checking how well they work as a result. We prevent sand and dust from derailing critical components and ensure their reliability.
