Description

SnagPod Method

The Pod rotates at 60rpm. The test duration is 2000
revolutions and takes only 30 minutes to complete.
Four specimens are tested simultaneously. The specimens are
mounted on feltcovered
tubes.
After testing, the specimens are graded against a series
of nine SnagPod reference photographs and subsequently
assigned an alphanumeric
rating.
The SnagPod method is particularly interesting for sportswear
manufacturers and has, for example, been adopted by Nike
and their suppliers.
