Scope*1.1 These test methods cover the

3、testing of rigid tubes usedin electrical insulation. These tubes include many types madefrom fibrous sheets of basic materials, such as cellulose, glass,or nylon, in the form of paper, woven fabrics, or mats, bondedtogether by natural or synthetic resins or by adhesives. Suchtubes include vulcanized

4、 fiber and thermosetting laminates, aswell as tubes made from cast, molded, or extruded natural orsynthetic resins, with or without fillers or reinforcing materials.1.2 Tubes tested by these test methods are most commonlycircular in cross section; however, noncircular shapes are alsoin commercial us

5、e. To the extent that the individual methodsare compatible with a particular noncircular shape, these testmethods are applicable to these other shapes. For tests onnoncircular tubes, appropriate comments should be included inthe test report, including details of orientation of test specimenswith res

Conditioning4.1 In order to eliminate the effects of previous history ofhumidity exposure and to obtain reproducible results (Note 1),the test specimens in all cases of dispute, shall be given aconditioning treatment for physical tests (Note 2) as follows:4.1.1 Tensile Strengt

12、h, Compressive Strength (Axial andDiametral), and DensityCondition the machined specimensprior to test by drying in an air-circulating oven for 48 h at 506 3 C, followed by cooling to room temperature in adesiccator. In either case, all specimens shall be tested at roomtemperature maintained at 23 6

13、 2 C, 50 % relative humidity.NOTE 1Conditioning of specimens may be undertaken: (a) for thepurpose of bringing the material into equilibrium with standard laboratoryatmospheric conditions of 23 C and 50 % relative humidity; (b) simply toobtain reproducible results, irrespective of previous history o

14、f exposure;or (c) to subject the material to abnormal conditions of temperature orhumidity in order to predict its service behavior.The conditions given here to obtain reproducible results may givephysical values somewhat higher or somewhat lower than values underequilibrium at normal conditions, de

18、emperature, however, will require from 20 to 100 days ormore depending upon thickness and type of material and its previoushistory. Consequently, conditioning for reproducibility must of necessitybe used for general purchase specifications and product control tests.NOTE 2Conditioning of specimens fo

19、r electrical tests is also neces-sary to obtain consistent results. In order to secure comparative results,specimens should be conditioned at the same temperature and humidity.5. Dimensional Measurements5.1 Dimensional measurements of tube shall be made inaccordance with Test Methods D 668.TENSILE S

20、TRENGTH6. Significance and Use6.1 Tension tests, properly interpreted, provide informationwith regard to the tensile properties of rigid tubing, whenemployed under conditions approximating those under whichthe tests are made. The tensile strength values may vary withthe size of the tube and with the

21、 temperature and atmosphericconditions. Tension tests may provide data for research anddevelopment and for engineering design, and are useful forquality control purposes.7. Apparatus7.1 Any universal testing machine may be used provided itis accurate to 1 % of the lowest breaking load to be applied.

22、Jaws that tighten under load, such as wedge-grip jaws, shall beused with the specimen properly aligned.7.2 The machine shall be verified in accordance withPractices E4.8. Test Specimens8.1 The test specimens shall be as shown in Fig. 1. Thelength, L, shall be as shown in Table 1. A groove shall bema

23、chined around the outside of the specimen at the center of itslength so that the wall section after machining shall be 60 % ofthe original nominal wall thickness. This groove shall consistof a straight section 2.25 in. (57 mm) in length with a radius of3 in. (76 mm) at each end joining it to the out

24、side diameter.Steel or brass plugs having diameters such that they will fitsnugly inside the tube, and having a length equal to the full jawlength plus 1 in. (25 mm) shall be placed in the ends of thespecimen to prevent crushing. They can be located in the tubeconveniently by separating and supporti

25、ng them on a threadedmetal rod. Details of plugs and test assembly are shown in Fig.1.9. Procedure9.1 Test five specimens. Measure the average inside andoutside diameters, determined from at least two measurements90 apart, at the groove to the nearest 0.001 in. (0.03 mm) andcalculate the cross-secti

26、onal area from these dimensions. As-semble the metal plugs with the tube as shown in Fig. 1. Graspthis assembly in the V-notched jaws of the testing machine.9.2 Speed of TestingThe crosshead speed of the testingmachine shall be such that the load can be accurately weighed,but shall not exceed 0.05 i

27、n./min (1.3 mm/min) when themachine is running idle.10. Report10.1 Report the following information:10.1.1 The average inside and outside diameters of thespecimen expressed to the nearest 0.001 in. (0.03 mm), eachdetermined from at least two measurements 90 apart,10.1.2 The average outside diameter

28、of the reduced sectionexpressed to the nearest 0.001 in. (0.03 mm),10.1.3 The full wall thickness of the specimen,10.1.4 The net area of the test section, in.2or mm2,10.1.5 The breaking load of each specimen, lbf or N,10.1.6 The tensile strength of each specimen, psi or MPa,and10.1.7 The room temper

No activity has beenplanned to develop such information.11.2 BiasThis test method has no bias because the valuefor tensi

30、le strength is determined solely in terms of this testmethod.COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH (AXIAL ANDDIAMETRAL)12. Significance and Use12.1 Compressive tests, properly interpreted, provide infor-mation with regard to the compressive properties of rigidtubing when employed under conditions approximating those

31、FIG. 1 Diagram Showing Location of Tube Tension TestSpecimen in Testing MachineD348072under which the tests are made. The compressive strengthvalues may vary with the size of the tube, and with temperatureand atmospheric conditions. Compression tests may providedata for research and development, eng

32、ineering design, qualitycontrol, and acceptance or rejection under specifications.13. Apparatus13.1 Any universal testing machine may be used provided itis accurate to 1 % of the lowest breaking load to be applied, inaccordance with Practices E4. One end of the specimen foraxial loading or the side

33、of the specimen for diametral loadingshall bear upon an accurately centered spherical bearing block,located whenever practicable at the top. The metal bearingplates shall be directly in contact with the test specimen.NOTE 3Off-center loading of the diametral compressive test maycause the tube to pus

34、h to one side.14. Test Specimens14.1 Unless otherwise specified, the material shall be testedin the as-received condition.14.2 Test specimens shall consist of 1-in. (25-mm) longsections of the tubing.14.3 Care shall be taken in cutting the test specimens for theaxial tests, to have the ends of the s

35、pecimens cut accurately andsmoothly at right angles to the axis of the tube.NOTE 4If the tubing is too large in diameter, or is too high in breakingstrength to be tested with the available testing equipment, a segment of thetest specimen specified in 14.2 and 14.3 may be substituted for axial tests.

36、Such segments should not be used for testing tubes less than 2 in. (51 mm)in outside diameter. Unless otherwise specified, use segments having acircumferential length of 2 in. (51 mm).15. Procedure15.1 Test five specimens axially, with the load appliedperpendicular to the faces or ends of the specim

37、en, or test fivespecimens diametrically, with the load applied perpendicular tothe tangent at point of application.15.2 Discard specimens that break at some obvious fortu-itous flaw and retest, unless such flaws constitute a variable, theeffect of which it is desired to study.15.3 Retain results (on

38、 specimens) that deviate markedlyfrom the mean value of all tests unless 15.2 applies. In this caserun additional tests, the exact number to be fixed by the desired(statistical) significance level.15.4 Speed of TestingThe crosshead speed of the testingmachine shall be 0.050 in./min (1.3 mm/min) when

39、 themachine is running idle. In cases of diametral loading ofcertain tubing, especially the larger diameter tubes, it may benecessary to operate the crosshead at a speed of loading greaterthan 0.050 in./min. In this event the speed should be stated inthe report.16. Report16.1 Report the following in

Significance and Use18.1 The moisture content of a rigid tube has a definiteinfluence on the electrical properties, as well as on mechanicalstrength, dimensional stability, and app

43、earance. The effectupon these properties of changes in moisture content, due towater absorption, depends largely upon the inherent propertiesof the rigid tube. The rate of water absorption may be widelydifferent through each edge and surface. A water absorptiondetermination will provide data useful

44、for research and devel-opment, engineering design, quality control, and acceptance orrejection under specifications.TABLE 1 Dimensions of Tension Specimens, in.
