The ABCs of ABS salt-spray testing Salt-spray testing evaluates the resistance to corrosion of paints, coatings, or electrical connections. The ABS salt-fog chamber provides exposure to a salt-intensive atmosphere. ABS can perform salt-spray tests on virtually any type of coatings, paints, and virtually any type of fastener or hardware. ABS also performs torsional tests, drill-speed tests, visual tests, and dimensional tests in our widely acclaimed QC laboratory.
