Still running an FP-2250 or FP-2255? Here’s how to spot the signs it’s time for a Friction/Peel upgrade, what carries over to the FP-2265, and how to plan the move on your schedule.
The FP-2265 replaces the FP-2260 keypad with a color touchscreen. See how the same test compares on both, what stays the same, and why it matters for training and setup.
Upgrading your friction/peel tester doesn’t have to mean starting over. The FP-2265 accepts the load cells, fixtures and clamps from the FP-2250, FP-2255 and FP-2260, so the tooling your lab has built up over the years comes with you. See what carries over, what it’s worth, and what you gain with the next generation of the Friction/Peel platform.
A Universal Testing Machine (UTM) measures how materials respond to applied forces such as tension, compression, and bending. By applying these forces in a controlled way, the machine captures data on how a material stretches, compresses, or ultimately fails under load. These results help manufacturers understand material strength, evaluate performance, and ensure products meet quality Read More »
A Universal Testing Machine (UTM) is designed to apply controlled forces to materials in order to evaluate their mechanical properties. While specific configurations may vary, all UTMs rely on a core set of components that work together to perform accurate and repeatable testing. Â Understanding how these elements interact provides a clearer picture of how Read More »
Introducing the FP-2265 Friction/Peel Tester — the next generation of our trusted FP-2260 platform, now with a color touchscreen, built-in pneumatics, and full backward compatibility.
Choosing the right universal testing machine starts with understanding how it works. Explore UTM testing methods, key components, and what to look for in load capacity, accuracy, and software.

A Universal Testing Machine (UTM) measures how materials respond to forces such as tension, compression, bending, or shear, identifying when a sample deforms or fails. Widely used in manufacturing, research, and quality control labs, UTMs can test a variety of materials—including plastics, metals, rubber, films, textiles, adhesives, and packaging—by swapping grips, fixtures, and accessories to Read More »
