5 SECURING THE DOLLY
5.1 USING 10mm, 14.2mm OR 20mm DOLLIES
1 Prepare the surface of the dolly and the coating where the dolly is
to be applied by roughening with the abrasive pad. Then de-
grease and clean both surfaces using a suitable solvent and
allow to dry. ®
2 Mix equal quantities of the two part Araldite adhesive and apply
a thin, even layer to the prepared surface of the dolly.
4 If testing on vertical surfaces, you may wish to tape the dolly in place
during cure.
4 Allow the adhesive to cure - see Section 16 ‘Adhesives’ on page
en-20.
®
4 Araldite adhesive is supplied by Elcometer however, other adhesives can
be used - see Section 16 ‘Adhesives’ on page en-20.
3 Press the dolly firmly onto the prepared test surface and apply
pressure to squeeze out excess adhesive which should then be
wiped clean.
5 If required, score the coating around the dolly using the dolly
cutter provided.

www.elcometer.com
en-9
R
5 SECURING THE DOLLY (continued)
4 Ensure that the scoring is perpendicular to the
coating and that the test area is not subjected to
twisting or torque. To minimise heat and
suppress dust, water lubrication may be
required.
To score coatings thinner than 0.5mm (20mils), a sharp knife may be
sufficient to carefully score around the dolly once it has been secured
in place by adhesive.
5.2 TESTING COATINGS ON CONCRETE USING 50mm
DOLLIES
When testing coatings on concrete using 50mm dollies, scoring of the
coating down to, or into, the surface of the concrete may be required.
1 If testing on coatings thicker than
0.5mm (20mils) use the 50mm dolly
cutter and arbor (mounted in a drill
press or hand drill) to cut a “ring” into
the concrete.
2 Follow steps 1-4 in Section 5.1, making
sure the dolly is positioned inside the
cut “ring”.
Concrete Substrate
6 ATTACHING THE GAUGE TO THE DOLLY
When testing at height or on vertical surfaces, in order to prevent damage to the
surrounding coating or harm to the user, it may be necessary to use the
Magnetic Anchor Clamp accessory, part number T99923797. This connects to
the lanyard ring on the top of the actuator to prevent the actuator from falling
when the dolly is pulled from the substrate.
4 The quick connect coupling is not a bayonet
fitting. Do not attempt to push the actuator on to
the dolly without lifting the quick connect
coupling.
1 Ensure the quick connect coupling is fully
depressed.
2 Pull up the quick connect coupling, place
c
the actuator (with skirt fitted ) over the
dolly then release the coupling to grip the
dolly. 1 2
c Skirts for 10mm, 14.2mm, 20mm and 50mm dollies and thin substrates are available - see Section 15.3 ‘Dolly
Skirts’ on page en-19 for details.

7 PERFORMING THE TEST
www.elcometer.com en-10
R
2 Ensure that the measurement units, dolly size and pull rate are
set as required, see Section 4.
4 The load continues to increase at the defined rate until either:
a) the dolly pulls off;
1 Press and hold the ON/OFF button to switch the gauge on.
b) the gauge maximum pull load / pressure has been
reached (eg. 25MPa for a 20mm dolly)
3 Press the start softkey (4) to begin the test. Load is applied at
the rate defined, displayed numerically on the screen and
illustrated on the load bar.
At this point, the gauge re-winds to ‘zero’ and the user is asked if
they wish to save the reading.
4 ‘---’ indicates a reading outside of range.
5 Pull up the quick connect coupling to release the dolly and
assess the results, see Section 8.
4 The gauge re-winds to ‘zero’ at a set rate of 1.5MPa/s or equivalent.
4 If the maximum pull load / pressure has been reached, the gauge will not
re-wind to ‘zero’ until the default hold time of 0.5 seconds has elapsed.
The stop softkey (<) can be pressed at any time during the test. If
pressed, the user is asked if they wish to save the reading and the
gauge re-winds to ‘zero’. If saved, the “stopped” reading is included in
the statistics.
Dollies can be reused after cleaning until either the top of the dolly
(where it is held in position by the quick connect coupling) is severely
deformed or the dolly surface is no longer flat. Additional dollies are
available from Elcometer or your local supplier - see Section 15.1 -
‘Dollies’ on page en-18 for details.

www.elcometer.com
en-11
R
8 ASSESSING THE RESULTS
Many National and International Standards including ISO 4624 &
ASTM D4541, require the user to record not only the pull-off force but
also the nature of the fracture by examining the bottom of the dolly
and assessing the adhesive / cohesive failure.
8.1 EXAMINING THE DOLLY
a) Cohesive Failure: The coating fails within the body of a coating
layer leaving the same coating on the surface and on the dolly
face.
Dolly Face Substrate
a) 100% Cohesive Failure
b) Adhesive failure: Is a failure at the interface between layers
(intercoat) where one pulls away from the other. The “coating”
on the dolly face will not be the same as that on the test area.
b) 100% Adhesive Failure Between Two Layers
Dolly Face Substrate

www.elcometer.com en-12
R
c) Glue failure: When no coating is present on the dolly it must be
recorded as a failure of the glue. This is normally due to incorrect
or insufficient mixing of the component parts of the adhesive,
incompatibility between the adhesive, the coating, the dolly, and /
or the test surface - see Section 5 - ‘Securing the Dolly’ on page
en-8 for more information.

8.2 EXAMINING THE DOLLY (COATINGS ON CONCRETE)
Observing the test area will give additional information about the type
of failure; adhesion and cohesion between different layers of the
coating.
When testing coatings on concrete it is common for the adhesive bond
between the coating and the concrete to exceed the strength of the
concrete itself. In this case concrete will be removed from the surface
and will be seen on the coating on the dolly face.

10 REVIEWING BATCH DATA (continued)
Note: The calculation of standard deviation is based on the distribution of individual
fracture strength values being normal, that is forming a normal curve when
plotted as a frequency chart. If adhesion values for pulls that are not completed
are included in the calculation, i.e. pulled to a limit value or maximum and not to
fracture, the distribution will not be normal and the standard deviation
calculation will not be mathematically correct. For the purpose of assessing the
distribution of values in this case, however, the calculation will be included as
though all the dollies were pulled to coating failure and it should be noted that
the resulting calculation is for guidance only.
10.2 BATCH READINGS (Batch/Review Batch/Readings)
