Friability tester (USP <1216>) for tablet mechanical durability testing. 25 rpm, 100 rotations, hexagonal drum. Measures % weight loss. IP and BP compliant. JS Civil Lab Solutions India.
The Friability Tester is used to determine the mechanical strength and resistance to abrasion of uncoated tablets as per USP <1216>, IP, and BP specifications. Tablets are tumbled in a rotating drum (hexagonal or cylindrical) at 25 rpm for 4 minutes (100 rotations), and the percentage weight loss (friability) is measured. Acceptable friability is typically ≤1.0% for most tablet formulations.
JS Civil Lab Solutions supplies USP-compliant friability testers for pharmaceutical QC labs and tablet R&D.
De-dust and weigh tablets, load into drum, run 100 rotations, de-dust and re-weigh. Calculate: Friability (%) = [(Initial weight − Final weight) / Initial weight] × 100. Reject batch if friability > 1%.
