BS EN 16653:2015EN 16653:2015 (E) 4 1 Scope This European Standard specifies a method for the determination of the resistance of the seams o
16、f rubber or plastic-coated fabrics against tearing out a needle perpendicular to the stitching direction. This resistance is characterized by determining the stitch tear force. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are in

20、sistance to pull a needle from a sample perpendicular to the stitching direction 3.2 stitch tear force stitch tear resistance, recorded as the maximum tearing force 3.3 stitch tear strength stitch tear force divided by the thickness 4 Test apparatus and materials The following test apparatus and mat
21、erials shall be used: 4.1 CRE machine. Metrological confirmation system of the tensile-testing machine shall be in accordance with EN ISO 10012. The constant-rate-of-extension (CRE) machine shall have the general characteristics given in 4.1.1 to 4.1.4. BS EN 16653:2015EN 16653:2015 (E) 5 4.1.1 The
22、tensile-testing machine shall be provided with means for indicating or recording the force applied to the test specimen. Under conditions of use, the accuracy of the apparatus shall be class 1 of EN ISO 7500-1. The error of the indicated or recorded maximum force at any point in the range in which t
23、he machine is used shall not exceed 1 %. 4.1.2 If a class 2 tensile-testing machine according to EN ISO 7500-1 is to be used, this shall be stated in the test report. 4.1.3 If recording of force is obtained by means of data acquisition boards and software, the frequency of data collection shall be a
24、t least eight per second. 4.1.4 The machine shall be capable of constant rate of extension of (100 10) mm/min. 4.2 Needle. Either a smooth needle of stainless steel having a diameter of (1,0 0,1) mm and a conical tip or a corresponding piece of spring steel wire having the same diameter, also made o
25、f stainless steel and having a conical tip. 4.3 Clamping device. As an example, Figure 1 shows a schematic view of a clamping device. The bearing bushes for the needle shall be parallel and adjustable such that they can be set in accordance with the thickness of the test specimen. The clamping devic
26、e shall be provided with a suitable safety device which prevents the needle from jumping out.

27、 be tested are sampled in the warp and weft directions. For each direction, five test specimens shall be sampled. The test specimens consist of strips with a length of (50 1) mm and a width of (20 1) mm. All test specimens shall be conditioned for at least 24 h prior to testing in accordance with EN
28、 ISO 2231. The final result shall be based on test specimens of the same type only, and the type shall be indicated in the test report. BS EN 16653:2015EN 16653:2015 (E) 7 6 Test method The test is carried out after conditioning in a standard atmosphere in accordance with EN ISO 2231. The thickness
29、of the test specimen shall be measured in accordance with EN ISO 2286-3. A needle having a diameter of 1 mm (see 4.2) is inserted into the test specimen 5 mm from the edge in the centre of the narrow side (see Figure 1), as perpendicularly as possible, by means of a template. Prior to this, the test
30、 specimen shall not have been pierced or punched in any manner. The needle, which is now held (fixed) inside the test specimen, is placed into the clamping device (see 4.3). The distance between the spacers shall be adjusted such that they just barely touch the test specimen. The lower end of the te
31、st specimen is clamped into the lower jaw (shown as a scissor clamp in Figure 1). The test specimen is elongated at 100 mm/min. Record the maximum force, in newtons, which occurs while the needle is being torn out (see Figure 2). Key X displacement in millimetres F force in newtons Fmaxstitch tear f

33、 in N and rounded to the nearest 0,5 N. 7.2 Stitch tear strength If required, the stitch tear strength, expressed in N/mm, is calculated as follows: maxStitch tear strength =Fdwhere Fmaxis the maximum stitch tear force, in newtons; d is the thickness of the test specimen, in millimetres. 8 Test repo

35、e with Clause 7: stitch tear force (7.1) and, if required, stitch tear strength (7.2); f) any deviation from the given procedure.
