1、Designation: D1813 13 (Reapproved 2017)Standard Test Method forMeasuring Thickness of Leather Test Specimens1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D1813; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of las
2、t revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the U.S. Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the measure
3、ment of the thick-ness of leather test specimens in which the dimensions of thespecimens are used directly in determining the results of testsfor physical properties. This test method does not apply to wetblue.1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas standard. The values given
4、in parentheses are mathematicalconversions to SI units that are provided for information onlyand are not considered standard.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish app
5、ro-priate safety, health, and environmental practices and deter-mine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.4 This international standard was developed in accor-dance with internationally recognized principles on standard-ization established in the Decision on Principles for theD

Apparatus4.1 Gage, equipped with a dial micrometer, a flat anvil, anda presser foot loaded by a dead mass.34.2 Dial, graduated to read to the nearest 0.01 mm, withsmall second dial graduated to read to the nearest 1 mm or tothe nearest 0.001 in. and 0.1 in. respectively.4.3 Anvil, flat
9、, with a diameter of 0.395 6 0.02 in. (10 6 0.5mm) and projecting 0.1 in. (2.5 mm) from the surface of a flatcircular platform about 2 in. (50 mm) in diameter.4.4 Presser Foot, having a flat surface 0.395 6 0.02 in. (106 0.5 mm) in diameter, and can be lifted by a lever at least 13mm or 0.5 in. It s
10、hall be dead-mass loaded to exert a total loadof 13.86 6 0.35 oz (393 6 10 g) on the specimen. The load isequivalent to 500 g/cm2. The contacting surface of the presserfoot and the surface of the anvil shall be parallel within 0.0001in. (0.0025 mm).5. Test Specimen5.1 The test specimen shall be a pi
11、ece of leather that hasbeen conditioned according to Practice D1610 and cut to thedimensions required for the particular physical test.6. Procedure6.1 Place the specimen on the anvil, and lower the presserfoot gently (do not drop) until it rests on the specimen. Take thereading 5 s after the full lo
12、ad is reached. Read the thickness tothe nearest 0.01 mm or 0.001 in.6.2 Take the number of thickness measurements at thedesired locations as specified in the particular physical testmethod being used.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D31 on Leatherand is the direct respon
