1、FORD LABORATORY TEST METHOD BP 116-01 Date 2001 O924 1990 02 23 PERMANENT TENSILE SET OF CIRCULAR RUBBER COMPONENTS Action Revisions Revised Editorial - no technical change A. Cockman Application This method determines the amount of permanent “set“ of circular rubber components such as wings, seals,

2、 and cross sections of tubes and hoses where ASTM D 395, SAE J120, ASTM D 412, and ASTM D 1414 are not applicable due to equipment limitations, small inside diameter, or unusual geometry typical of lip-type oil seals mounted on rigid material castings. Scope This method provides a procedure for dete

3、rmining the percent change in inside diameter or percent tensile set of rubber wings, seals, and cross sections of tubes and hoses after experiencing a specific elongation for defined periods of time at various temperatures and exposure media. It is useful for determining environmental effects resul

4、ting from exposure to heat, ozone, and fluids where dimensional stability and heat or ozone crack resistance are investigated. In cases of 25 percent elongation, this test may or may not give direct correlation to ASTM D 395 (Compression Set), but will yield comparative data to base judgments as to

5、expected compression set performance between materials in the absence of uniform sheet material. This method may or may not meet the stated requirements for particular components when exposed to ozone atmosphere. Refer to FLTM BP 1 O1 -01 and the appropriate Engineering Materials Specification for a

6、pplicability. This method may be employed for obtaining comparative data on lip-seal performance with and without “garter springs“, at actual engineering elongations, or more severe elongations either with casing intact or removed. In cases of desired elastomeric elongations greater than that allowe

It should provide a nick-free, uniform, circumferential removal of the elastomeric seal material while under rotation. Spiral springs (“garter“) or other metal reinforcements

Conditioning and Test Conditions All test values indicated herein are based on material conditioned in a controlled atmosphere of 23 +/- 2 OC and 50 +/- 5 % relative humidity for not less than 24 h prior to testing and tested under the same conditions unless otherwise specified

14、. Procedure Unless otherwise specified, condition all materials according to ASTM D 1349. 1. Sample five rings or seals from each lot. 2. Inspect the rings or seals for molding imperfections (.e. excess flash, cracks, pits, etc.). necessary substitute substandard ones and note imperfections. If 3. M

15、easure the rings or seals individually on the Shadowgraph and record the inside diameter to the nearest 0.02 mm at right angles for a total of two measurements. Average the two initial inside diameters and record as Di. Page 2 of 3 Copynght02001, Ford Global Technologies, Inc FORD LABORATORY TEST ME

16、THOD BP 116-01 4. 5. 6. 7. 1. 2. Calculate the required increase in diameter to achieve the desired elongation and select or fabricate a mandrel of appropriate diameter. In cases of oil seals contained in rigid structures, determine maximum elongation expected in service or a more extreme elongation

17、 as geometry permits. If the desired elongation is greater than that permitted by the rigid housing, employ procedures for removing the elastomer from its reinforced housing by using rotational lathe techniques. Rinse away residual soap with running water if soap was used in the lathe operation, and

18、 air-dry. Record the mandrel diameter as (D,). Carefully slide the ring or seal on the mandrel, taking care not to nick or invert the cross section or fold under the sealing lip or dust lip of the seal. Use a graphite lubricant if necessary. Place the assembly into the required aging environment. At

19、 the end of the exposure period, unless otherwise specified, remove the assembly and immediately remove the rings or seals from the mandrel and allow to cool on an electrically thermally non-conductive surface for 30 minutes at 23 +/- 2 “C. In the case of fluid aging, cool the rings or seals in a co

20、ntainer of the same unaged fluid for 30 minutes (see ASTM D 471). The ring or seal is then remeasured on the Shadowgraph as in Step 3 and an average final inside diameter (Df) obtained.
