Scope1.1 These test methods cover the deter

3、mination of tensilestrength of certain nonmetallic gasketing materials at roomtemperature. The types of materials covered are those contain-ing asbestos and other inorganic fibers (Type 1), cork (Type 2),cellulose or other organic fiber (Type 3), and flexible graphite(Type 5) as described in Classif

These testmethods are not applicable to the testing of vulcanized rubber,a method for which is described in Test Methods D412 nor forrubber O-rings, a method for which is described in TestMethods D1414.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard. The values in p

The measurement of this property character-izes various classes and grades of materials of a given type andin so doing, it will give the manufacturer a measurement of thequality of his product. It also will aid the purchaser of thegasketing m

11、aterials to be able to determine whether the gasketmaterial that he has approved for a given application is beingmanufactured in acceptable quality.4.2 The measurement of this property should not be mis-construed as to give the purchaser of the gasket material anindication of the performance of that

12、 material in application.4.3 The property may be useful in establishing materialspecifications.4.4 Various procedures are given for the different types ofmaterials, and in order to compare the results from onelaboratory to another, it is imperative that the applicableprocedure be selected.4.5 Variou

Laboratories having different equipment mayhave to establish correlations between each other; otherwise,misinterpretation of the test data could result.1These test methods are
