This tool applies a standard formula from the relevant domain. The computation is deterministic — given the same inputs, the result is always identical. The formula accounts for the primary variables that determine the output.
PRI = (Initial rating − Post-test rating) / Cycles × 100The calculation requires: Initial Rating (1–5), Post-Test Rating, Rubbing Cycles. Each parameter contributes to the final result according to the formula above. Accuracy depends on the precision of your input measurements.

Check the expected unit for each input field (shown as suffix). Converting between imperial and metric units before entering values prevents calculation errors.
Ensure denominator values (divisors) are non-zero. The calculator validates this, but understanding which fields cannot be zero helps interpret results correctly.
Estimate pilling resistance index from Martindale test ratings. Free pilling resistance index tool for pilling, resistance, and more. It applies the calculation formula (PRI = (Initial rating − Post-test rating) / Cycles × 100).
