1、 WORLDWIDE ENGINEERING STANDARDS Test Procedure GMW14146 Stitch Tear Out Resistance Copyright 2012 General Motors Company All Rights Reserved August 2012 Originating Department: North American Engineering Standards Page 1 of 5 1 Scope Note: Nothing in this standard supercedes applicable laws and reg

2、ulations. Note: In the event of conflict between the English and domestic language, the English language shall take precedence. 1.1 Purpose. The object of this test is to determine the resistance to which threads or fibers of felts, leather, and other trim materials have to being “torn” out. There a

3、re two test procedures: Procedure A: Stitch Tear Out (using a needle). Procedure B: Stitch Point Tear Out (using a flat mandrel). Note: Procedure A shall be used for all materials except leather. Use procedure B for leather. 1.2 Foreword. This test procedure measures the stitch tear out resistance a

4、s defined as the maximum force attained when a penetrator (needle or flat mandrel), acting perpendicular to the thread direction, is pulled through a test piece at a specified speed. 1.3 Applicability. This standard applies to textile materials including fabric and leather. 2 References Note: Only t

14、 by 20 mm shall be taken in warp and filling, wale and course, or longitudinal and transverse direction (longitudinal direction = machine direction). If the machine direction cannot be determined, specimens shall be taken from the material in two directions perpendicular to one another. For initial

15、sample approval and arbitration purposes, test at least three specimens taken from each direction, and for routine quality control, at least one specimen shall be tested. 4.2 Conditions. 4.2.1 Environmental Conditions. All test specimens shall be conditioned to GMW3221, Code A. 4.2.2 Test Conditions

16、. Deviations from the requirements of this standard shall have been agreed upon. Such requirements shall be specified on component drawings, test certificates, reports, etc. 4.3 Instructions. 4.3.1 The test shall be performed after conditioning for a minimum of 24 h to the requirements of GMW3221, C

18、served August 2012 Page 4 of 5 4.3.2.1 Procedure A. The specimens shall be punctured with the steel needle at the center of the shortest edge at a distance of 5 mm from the edge and as vertically as possible. Holes of bores should not be previously made. 4.3.2.2. Procedure B. The punch cutter referr

19、ed to in 3.2.5 shall be used to cut the long hole (see Figure 5) into the specimens at the center of the shortest edge at a distance of 5 mm from the edge and as vertically as possible. Afterwards, the penetrator is pushed through the hole. 4.3.3 The specimen with the penetrator (needle or flat mand

20、rel) shall then be placed in the support bracket and the spacing of the support brackets relative to the specimen thickness shall be adjusted such that no pressure is exerted on the specimen. The other end of the specimen shall be clamped in the lower clamping device. 4.3.4 The specimen shall then b

21、e pulled at a speed of 100 mm 10 mm/minute. The maximum force occurring during the tearing-out of the penetrator (needle or flat mandrel) shall be measured. 5 Data 5.1 Calculations. 5.1.1 The stitch tear-out resistance shall be recorded as the measured individual value (quality control) or as the ar

22、ithmetical mean value (initial approval or arbitration) in newtons rounded to the nearest 0.5 N. 5.1.2 The direction from which the test piece was taken shall also be noted. 5.1.3 Report the averaged measurements individually for each direction (machine direction or cross machine direction). For lea

23、ther, report the averages for each direction as “parallel to the backbone” and “perpendicular to the backbone”. 5.2 Interpretation of Results. Not applicable. 5.3 Test Documentation. Report the average of the required number of data points to the nearest 0.5 N on the appropriate commodity data sheet
