Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1 This practice is intended for use in determining thegeometrical dimensio

3、ns of rubber products and specimens forphysical tests. This practice describes procedures for determin-ing length, width, thickness, diameter, and circumference. Thispractice does not cover sampling of materials or products, orlocations where a sample is to be taken.1.2 The values stated in either a

4、cceptable metric units or inother units shall be regarded separately as a standard. Thevalues stated in each system may not be exact equivalents;therefore, each system must be used independently of the other,without combining values in any other way.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all

5、of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility or regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Significance and Use4.1 Dimensional measurements specified in this practice aremade for one

10、of the following purposes: (1) to determineconformance with specification requirements regarding geo-metrical properties of whole units, such as the size of rubbergloves, or the diameter and circumference of rubber hose, (2)to determine conformance with specification requirementsregarding particular

11、 functional parts of units, such as thethickness of the soles of boots, or ( 3) to determine geometricalvalues that are necessary in the calculation of test results forphysical properties for which requirements are specified, suchas the thickness of a test specimen for tensile strength. Themethod to

12、 be used shall be as specified in the detail specifica-tion or appropriate test method.4.2 Pressure applied by measuring instruments has a signifi-cant effect on the observed thickness of soft flexible materials,and it is therefore necessary to specify the pressure imposed bythe foot of the instrume

13、nt on the test piece for accuratecomparative measurements of such materials.5. Test Specimens5.1 Test specimens shall consist of a product, in whole or inpart, for which the geometric dimensions are sought, asdescribed in a detail specification or test method.

However, the 25mm presser foot may continue to be used for Test Method D 926, provided themass given in the table above is employed.D3767033dimension being measured.Repeat the procedure again with the test specimen removed,and the diffe

32、rence between readings is the dimension of the testspecimen.The pressure exerted by the presser foot shall be:22 6 5 kPa (3.2 6 0.7 psi) (refer to Table 1) for solid rubberhaving a hardness equal to or greater than 35 IRHD and10 6 2 kPa (1.5 6 0.3 psi) for solid rubber having a hardnessless than 35

33、IRHD (see Test Method D 1415 ). The presser footshall not extend over the edge of the area of the test specimen(see Note 1).9.1.3.2 When using an instrument equivalent to the oneshown in Fig. 2, the micrometer is adjusted so that the presserfoot is resting freely on the (polished granite) base.The m

34、icrometer is then reset to a “zero” reading. The presserfoot is then raised with the lifting lever mechanism.The test specimen is placed beneath the presser foot.The presser foot is lowered gently to the test specimen.Read and record the thickness from the micrometer to anaccuracy within 1 % of the

35、dimension being measured imme-diately after the presser foot contacts the test specimen.The reading displayed digitally is the dimension of the testspecimen to within the tolerance (resolution) of the instrument.The pressure exerted by the presser foot shall be 22 6 5 kPa(3.2 6 0.7 psi) (refer to Ta

36、ble 1) for solid rubber having ahardness equal to or greater than 35 IRHD, and 10 6 2 kPa (1.56 0.3 psi) for solid rubber having a hardness of less than 35IRHD.The presser foot shall not extend beyond the edge of the testspecimen (see Note 1).9.1.3.3 This practice allows for a range of masses to be

37、usedin concert with a foot of a given diameter (). This is toaccommodate the inherent frictional resistance of the gagemechanism, as well as the additional force introduced by themass of the gage assembly.9.1.3.4 In Table 1, the “Optimal Mass” may be consider thatwhich would cause the force (kPa / p

38、si) to be applied by a footof the stated diameter with no gage or mechanism involved, asif by gravity. The “maximum” and “minimum” values shownin Table 1 are those that are defined by the upper and lowerlimits, for example, 22 6 5 kPa / 3.2 6 0.7 psi and 10 6 2kPa / 1.5 6 0.3 psi.NOTE 1The operator

39、should take care to ensure that the micrometerand guide post assembly is perpendicular to the granite base or other testspecimen support surface to within a tolerance of 60.002 in. Theperpendicularity should be ascertained with the micrometer at the oper-ating height.9.2 Procedure A1:9.2.1 ScopeThis

40、 procedure is intended for use in deter-mining the thickness of test specimens with irregular, convex,or concave surfaces, using a micrometer with a spherical foot.It is particularly suitable for compression set test specimens.9.2.2 ApparatusThe apparatus shall consist of a microme-ter (such as dial

The contactmembers shall exert a force of 0.8 6 0.1 N (0.18 6 0.02 lbf)and shall
