1、 ENGINEERING MATERIAL SPECIFICATION Date Action Revisions Rev.0 2017 03 20 Released D. Murtonen, NA Controlled document at www.MATS Copyright 2017, Ford Global Technologies, LLC Page 1 of 3 LEATHER, GENUINE, LUXURY NON-CHROME WSS-M1F27-D2 REDUCED EMISSIONS 1. SCOPE The materials defined by this spec
2、ification are steer or heifer hides which have been tanned and processed with minimal grain and no alteration to the top surface which allows for a soft haptic without sacrificing the leathers physical properties. Top coat is a finish that allows for a premium haptic which is a primary attribute for
3、 this leather. Top coat finish is not engineered to meet high abrasion characteristics. 2. APPLICATION These specifications were released for material used as seating leather. 2.1 LIMITATION This specification cannot be used for instrument panel covers, steering wheels or door uppers. 3. REQUIREMENT
4、S 3.1 APPROVED SOURCES This specification requires the use of approved sources. Only the sources identified on the Ford Approved Source List (ASL) can be used when this specification is listed on the drawing, CAD file, or other documents. The list of approved sources is located within Ford at or av
5、ailable externally through a Ford Materials Engineer. 3.2 SUPPLIER RESPONSIBILITY It is the Leather suppliers responsibility to inform the JIT supplier that subjecting leather to steam or radiant heat or organic solvents during any manufacturing process will adversely affect the hand and appearance
6、characteristics. 3.3 APPEARANCE The color, grain, gloss and hand shall match the approved Corporate Design master sample. 3.4 LEATHER PERFORMANCE Materials manufactured to this Specification shall also meet the requirements contained in WSS-M99P43-D/latest. 3.5 VEHICLE INTERIOR ENVIRONMENTAL PERFORM
7、ANCE Materials used in interior applications must meet the requirements outlined in WSS-M99P2222-D1/latest, Performance, Vehicle Interior Environmental Quality Material/Component Requirements.

Testing of the material should occur in the c
9、onditioning environment or soon after removal. 3.7 SAMPLE SELECTION LOCATIONS The location of the test samples is described in ISO 2418 or ASTM D2813 for physical testing of leather samples. Refer to WSS-M99P43-D/latest for samples to be taken from the belly and backbone areas as noted in Table 1 of
10、 that specification. 3.8 FINISH All hides shall show no paint defects or surface blemishes affecting the appearance of the material, such as brush marks or stops. 3.9 THICKNESS 1.0 - 1.5mm (ASTM D 1813) or as specified on the Engineering Drawing 3.10 SHRINKAGE 5.0% max (FLTM BN 105-03, except Heat C
11、ycle 100 +/-2 C, 3 cycles) 3.11 STIFFNESS 55 +/- 10mm (FLTM BN 157-02) Stiffness measurements shall be taken along either side of the backbone. Stiffness must be tested from a hide. Stiffness cannot be taken from a pre or post assembled trim cover. Embossed or laminated leather will impact stiffness
12、 therefore, numerical results could occur outside of the range above. Stiffness numerical values will not reflect a direct correlation to the haptic properties of leather. 3.12 STRETCH AND SET (SAE J855) Stretch 25% max Set 10% max 3.13 VOC EMISSIONS FROM VEHICLE INTERIOR MATERIALS (FLTM BZ 108-01)
