33、 channels. It simulates actual use conditions andprovides a measurement of the force required to open the lipsof the gasket channel to that distance representing the thicknessof material for which the gasket is designed. In the case ofdouble channel gaskets, this measurement is made with a solidmate

34、rial of the intended thickness in position in the channelopposite to that being tested. Thus these measurements reflectthe forces to be encountered during application.7.9.2 Apparatus:7.9.2.1 The testing machine shall be a power-driventension-testing machine of the movable cross-head type,equipped wi

35、th adjustable cross-head speed and a suitabledynamometer and indicating or recording device for measuringthe applied force within 62%.7.9.2.2 The grips to be used with the testing machinedescribed in 7.9.2.1 shall be of a type similar to those shown inFig. 1. They shall exert a uniform pressure acro

36、ss the grippingsurface, increasing as the tension increases, so as to preventuneven slipping.7.9.2.3 The lip dividers used to separate the lips of the testspecimen shall be made of stainless steel as shown in Fig. 2.Their length shall be at least equal to that of the test specimen.7.9.2.4 The metal

37、spacer to be used when testing double-channel gaskets, as shown in Fig. 1, shall be the same length asthe test specimen, the same thickness as the material the gasketis designed to hold, and at least 13 mm (12 in.) wider than thedepth of the channel.7.9.3 Test Specimen:7.9.3.1 The extruded test spec

38、imen shall be a piece of theactual gasket at least 25 mm (1 in.) in length. A minimum offour specimens from each lot shall be tested.7.9.4 Procedure:7.9.4.1 Place the test specimen in the testing machine asshown in Fig. 1, ensuring that the locking strip is in place andthat, if it is a double-channe

39、l-type gasket, the specified spaceris properly positioned in the channel opposite from that beingtested. Provide means of supporting the test assembly so thatwhen tension is applied to the channel lips, the assembly willremain in a horizontal position (Note 3). It is important toensure that the lip

40、dividers have a secure hold on the gasket lipsand that they are also securely held by the grips of the machine.Conduct the test at 23 6 1C (73.4 6 1.8F).NOTE 3When testing single channel gaskets, the spacers obviouslycannot be used. However, some means must be provided to hold the testspecimen in a

41、horizontal position during testing.7.9.4.2 Separate the lips of the gasket channel at a uniformrate of 5.1 mm (0.20 in.)/min, until the distance between thelips is equal to the minimum thickness of the material they aredesigned to hold.7.9.4.3 When the lips have been separated the specifieddistance,

42、 stop the testing machine and record the amount offorce in lbf (or kgf) required to produce this opening.7.9.4.4 Repeat 7.9.4.1-7.9.4.3 until all of the extruded chan-nels of a minimum of four specimens of each type have beentested.7.9.4.5 Calculate the lip pressure of each channel tested asfollows:

43、Lip pressure, N/linear cm lbf/linear in.!5F/L (1)where:F = force required to open the lips the specified distance, N(lbf), andL = length of test specimen in cm (in.), to the nearest 0.2cm (0.1 in.).7.9.5 ReportThe following test information shall bereported:7.9.5.1 Date of test,7.9.5.2 Type of testi
