GENERAL INFORMATION The information below is provided for clarification and assistance in meeting the requirements of this specification. Original hardness testing according to ASTM D 2240 (durometer A) will be no longer acceptable in Ford specifications after January 1991. International hardness according to ASTM D 1415 will be the only acceptable test/requirement.
