Gravel bombardment Test in Chennai
How Gravel Bombardment Testing Protects Your Product's Reputation
Introduction
- In industries where performance and durability are non-negotiable, small details can have a big impact. One such critical detail is how well a product can withstand the relentless assault of gravel and debris on the road. That’s where Gravel Bombardment Testing plays a vital role — and at Kiyo R&D Center & Laboratory in Chennai, we deliver this specialized testing with unmatched precision.

The Hidden Threat: Gravel Impact on Vehicles and Equipment
Gravel, stones, and loose debris may seem minor, but at highway speeds, they become damaging projectiles. These impacts can lead to:
Chipping of paints and coatings
Deformation of plastic or metal surfaces
Initiation points for corrosion and cracks
Such issues not only reduce the lifespan of parts but also tarnish a brand’s quality perception. That’s why pre-emptive durability testing is no longer optional — it’s essential.
