CASS Test Chamber

Pacorr’s CASS Test Chamber is designed for Copper Accelerated Acetic Acid Salt Spray testing, commonly known as CASS testing. This test method is used to evaluate the corrosion resistance of decorative and protective coatings, especially on plated, anodized and metal-finished components.

The CASS Test Chamber is suitable for industries working with nickel plating, chromium plating, anodized aluminium, automotive trim parts, metal hardware and coated components. It helps manufacturers assess coating quality and corrosion resistance under aggressive test conditions.
