The Bend Test instrument is used by the Boffins in the Cellon Laboratories to test finishes for break resistance. A strip of metal, coated with the material for test, is set round the pintle of the *hinge'. The instrument is then placed in a refrigerator at 0°C and the 'hinge' is closed. If the coating cracks under the strain the material is rejected.
