A num
2、ber in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the U.S. Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1 This practice is intended for use in determining the
3、geometrical dimensions 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 value
4、s stated in either acceptable 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 pur
5、port to address all 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.
