1、Designation: D2527 83 (Reapproved 2017)Standard Specification forRubber SealsSplice Strength1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D2527; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A nu
2、mber in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers the strength and appearance ofthe splice in vulcanized rubber-seal material of any size, type,or cross-sectiona
3、l shape.1.2 Many types and varieties of seals are used in services ofall degrees of severity. In some instances, hollow tubing isspliced and used as a seal. It is also possible to have seals ofirregular cross sections, or made of polymers which, due totheir nature, or not conducive to a high-strengt

The effect of such media on the splicedarea must be considered. Details of the test procedures toevaluate the effect of the media shall

The values given in parentheses are for informationonly.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its
6、 use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.6 This international standard was developed in accor-dance with internationally recognized principles on standard

8、oplas-tic ElastomersTension3. Classification3.1 In order to provide for the various types of seals andrequirements, three classes of splices have been established:3.1.1 Class 1 covers splices in seals not having a solid crosssection but an irregular cross section, of a polymer notconducive to a high
9、-strength splice, or for moderate servicerequirements.3.1.2 Class 2 covers splices in solid seals of a shape andcomposition conducive to high-strength splices. This classcovers applications requiring high-splice strength or servicerequirements.3.1.3 Class 3 covers splices in round solid seals of aco
10、mposition conducive to extra-high-strength splices. Thisclass covers applications requiring extra-high-splice tensile andbend strength due to difficult service requirements. Class 3tests of seals in other than round shapes shall be agreed uponby the purchaser and manufacturer using this specificatio
11、n as aguide.3.2 In the event that an application requires special consid-eration and values, these values can be indicated on the partprint, using this specification as a guide.4. Workmanship4.1 Upon visual inspection, the splice shall not show anysigns of separation.5. Physical Requirements5.1 When
12、 tested in accordance with the procedure outlinedin Section 7, the splice shall meet the following requirements:Class 1 Class 2 Class 3AUltimate elongation for the sealarea, %20 50 100AIn qualitative nondestructive test, Class 3 seals shall also meet the requirementsin 7.2.3 and 7.2.4.6.

17、mmittee.17. Test Methods7.1 Quantitative Destructive Test:7.1.1 The method described herein is for a quantitative-typedestructive test to be used for relative evaluation, approval, andas a referee method in the event of a dispute.7.1.2 When the dimensions of the seal permit it, prepareelongation spe
18、cimens in accordance with Test Methods D412in such a manner that the splice area shall fall within the testarea (Dimension L of Fig. 2, Test Methods D412). When abias-cut splice is made, cut the elongation specimen from theseal in such a manner that the “line of splice” shall run straightacross the
19、test specimen and perpendicular to the edges of thewidth of the test specimen (Dimension L of Fig. 2, TestMethods D412).7.1.3 In the event that the seal cross section is too small toprepare a suitable standard specimen, employ the same methodnormally used to establish the ultimate tensile and elonga
20、tionof the seal to establish the elongation of the splice.7.2 Qualitative Nondestructive Test:7.2.1 For a nondestructive type test such as used forproduction quality control, stretch the spliced area of the sealitself. Determine the elongation of the joints by measuring theseparation of two marks pl
21、aced 75 mm (3 in.) apart with thesplice in the center of the marked area.7.2.2 The minimum required elongation for the nondestruc-tive seal test shall be as indicated in Section 5, or on the partprint.7.2.3 Class 3 seals while elongated 100 % shall be rotated inthe splice area for a minimum of 180 i
22、n each direction.7.2.4 Class 3 seals in the unstretched splice area shall besubjected to bend testa maximum of 270 and a minimum of180. The rod diameter used to bend the gasket shall be equalto the cross-sectional diameter of the gasket.8. Precision and Bias8.1 A precision and bias statement is not
