A-Missile Tester
Precision GMAX Testing for Football Fields, Wrestling Mats, and Trampolines
When athletes land hard on turf, mats, or trampoline surfaces, safety depends on how well the surface absorbs the impact. The TRIAX Touch A-Missile Testing System is a high-performance natural and synthetic turf impact testing machine designed to measure surface hardness (GMAX) with speed, accuracy, and reliability.
The 20-pound, 5-inch stainless steel A Missile provides reliable data for safety and compliance, and meets the requirements in ASTM F355 Procedure A
What Is the TRIAX Touch A-Missile Tester?
The TRIAX Touch A-Missile Tester is a portable surface impact test system used to determine the shock-absorbing performance of natural and synthetic playing surfaces. It’s specifically engineered for sports field impact testing andcomplies with major industry standards.
The A Missile measures GMAX, which is the maximum deceleration (impact force) that occurs when the missile hits a surface. The natural and synthetic turf impact testing calculations determine how well a surface mitigates fall-related injuries — a critical factor in preventing injuries during sports and physical activity.
Meets Key ASTM Standards
The A-Missile Testing System is designed to comply with leading global and North American surface testing standards, including:
| Standard | Application |
| ASTM F1936 | Testing for football fields — evaluates surface GMAX for North American football field playing systems |
| ASTM F355 | General impact test standard for playing surface systems and materials |
| ASTM F1081 | Testing for wrestling mats — ensures compliance with competition mat safety standards |
| ASTM F2970 | Testing for trampoline courts — verifies design and maintenance compliance for commercial trampoline facilities |
| ASTM F381 | Testing for consumer trampolines used in residential settings |
This makes the TRIAX Touch A-Missile one of the top sports field impact testing machines for schools. It’s also ideal for high school athletic programs, indoor gyms, and trampoline parks.
