Analysis of Test Results
Upon completion of the pull-off test, the dolly and coated surface
should be examined. In addition to pull-off force, many National
and International standards such as ASTM D4541 and ISO 4624
require the nature of the fracture to be recorded.
Dolly Face
Coated Surface
Adhesive fracture:
fracture occurs at the interface
between layers (coating on

Cohesive fracture:
fracture occurs within a coating
layer (same coating on dolly
face and coated surface).
