DINEN 13555:2014-07EN 13555:2014(E)5 Introduction This document provides the test procedures to allow the gene

These procedures are not for routine quality control purposes. DINEN 13555:2014-07EN 13555:2014 (E) 6 1 Sco

Gaskets which are wholly based upon elastomers, or based upon elastomers with only the inclusion of particulate fillers or particulate rei
