Significance and Use3.1 This test method is intended to provide a stable industrystandard by which benchmarks and comparisons can be madeby manufacturers and consumers.3.2 This test method is intended to clarify and define arrowspine or stiffness as it pertains to the archery industry

7、and sport.4. Measurement Guidelines for Arrow Spine4.1 Arrow Spine MeasurementThe most prevalent andcommonly accepted method of measuring arrow shaft spineinvolves supporting the arrow shaft along a known, fixed span,and using an indicator device while the arrow shaft is deflectedwith a known weight

8、 depending from or pressing upon thearrow shaft at the exact center between the supports for theshaft. For this test method, a span type measurement is to beused. The length of the arrow shaft to be tested, the spandistance to be used, and the equipment to be used are definedas follows:4.1.1 Shaft L

9、ength The shaft length to be used forstandard spine measurement is the span distance plus 1 in. toallow for axial travel during deflection.4.1.2 Span Distance The length of the span to be used forthis test is 28 in. (71.1 cm). For those shafts that aremanufactured less than 29 in. (73.7 cm) in lengt

10、h, the spandistance to be used is 23 in. (58.4 cm).4.1.2.1 Span = 28 in. (71.1 cm) for shafts longer than 29 in.(73.7 cm).4.1.2.2 Span = 23 in. (58.4 cm) for shafts shorter than 29 in.(73.7 cm).4.1.2.3 Approximate conversion formula to convert a spineat 23 in. (58.4 cm) span to a 28 in. (71.1 cm) sp

13、0.176 oz (5 g).4.1.4.2 Noncontact Gauging EquipmentNoncontact gaug-ing equipment, such as laser gauging equipment, shall read towithin 0.001 in. of mechanical contact measurement equipmentconforming to the test methods and specifications outlinedherein.4.1.5 Span Support PointsSupport points shall a

16、l have a maximum diameter of 0.125 in. (3.175mm) at the point of contact with the arrow shaft.4.1.6 Test Description The arrow shaft shall be deflectedby a 1.94 lb (880 g) weight at the center of the span. Theweight may depend from or rest upon the shaft. The differencebetween the position of a give

17、n datum at the center of the shaftand the position of the same datum during deflection shall bethe shaft spine value. The reading shall be taken within 30 s toprevent plastic deformation of the shaft material from affectingthe readings.4.2 Measurement AccuracyThe accuracy and span toler-ance of the

18、equipment and setup shall have a measuredaccuracy of at least 60.002 in. (0.05 mm).5. Industry Guidelines for Specification Disclosure5.1 The term standard spine may be used in instances wherea reading is taken in accordance with this test method.5.2 Spine readings shall be taken within a standard t

19、empera-ture range of 65 to 75F (18 to 24C). Because humidity is nota factor in arrow shaft measurement a relative humidity rangeof 5 to 85 % is permissible.5.3 The shaft span for which the reading has been takenshall be clearly defined in English units, specifically inches (forexample, 0.470 in. arr

20、ow shaft spine 28 in. span).5.4 Spine variation around the arrow shaft may be expressedas standard spine around shaft variation (x) where x is avalue, in inches of the total spine variation, derived from fourspine readings taken at locations evenly spaced 90 around theshaft.5.5 In instances where a

21、manufacturer wishes to specify aplus/minus reading, this should be indicated as distinct fromstandard spine (for example, 60.001 in.)6. Precision and Bias6.1 It is not practical to specify the precision of theprocedure of this test method because it has not yet beendetermined.6.2 The procedure descr

22、ibed in this test method has no biasbecause the spine of an arrow shaft is defined only asprescribed in this test method.7.
