The force is measured at a specific point of the fixture.The point to be contacted on the tire sidewall is determinedwithin this test method.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method establishes a standard

17、 procedure for thetest and provides data that can be related to the force requiredto unseat the bead of a tire inflated with a specified pressurefrom the rim. This test method does not establish performancelimits or tolerances for tire specifications.6. Apparatus6.1 A fixture to hold the tire-rim as

18、sembly as shown inAnnex A1 or equivalent.6.2 Testing machine which incorporates a block traveling at50.8 6 1.58 mm/min (2.0 6 0.0625 in./min) which can exerta force on the fixture at the spherical attachment point (in linewith the centerline of the bead unseating block) or equivalent.6.3 A force ind
