the pendulum skid tester measures the frictional resistance between a rubber slider mounted on the end of a pendulum arm and the test surface. this provides highway engineers with a routine method of checking the resistance of wet and dry surfaces to slipping and skidding, both in the lab and on site  

Applications:
-Road surface testing
-Testing of new road surface materials under development
-Testing of aggregates in the PSV (polished stone value) test
-Testing of floors and pedestrian walkways
-Flooring materials product development
-Accident investigations, both traffic and pedestrian
-Litigation investigations
