Abschnitt 6.3 - 6.3 Short description of the test method used to determine the anti-slip properties of floor coverings according to German standard DIN 51131

A measuring device for determining sliding friction as specified in German standard DIN 51131, such as the GMG 200, has sliders mounted on its base and is pulled at a constant speed parallel to the surface of the floor covering. The force required to move the slider over the length of the measured track is determined. To calculate the coefficient of sliding friction, this force is divided by the vertically active force.
