1、Designation: F373 13 (Reapproved 2017)Standard Test Method forEmbossed Depth of Resilient Floor Coverings1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F373; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year of originaladoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last re

2、vision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. A superscriptepsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the U.S. Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1 Two important characteristics involved

3、in the manufac-ture of resilient flooring relate to the smoothness of the wearsurface and the hardness of the layers under the wear surface.The surfaces may vary from completely textured areas toportions that are flat but separated by textured areas. This testmethod covers flooring with these interr

4、upted wear surfaceswhich are not supported by soft, cushioned layers.1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematicalconversions to SI units that are provided for information onlyand are not considered standard.1.3 This standar

5、d does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety, health, and environmental practices and deter-mine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.4 This intern

8、nificance4.1 This test method is designed to measure the verticaldistance between any two levels on the face of the flooring, thatis, between any two flat areas, between a flat area and any partof a textured area, or between two textured areas. This verticaldistance may be of interest in itself or i

9、t may be applied to thequestions of: (1) how much of the thickness of the flooring isavailable before the pattern is destroyed; or (2) how deep thedepressed areas must be before valley printing ink is notwalked on in normal traffic.5. Apparatus5.1 The apparatus shall consist of a comparator stand ha

10、vinga flat anvil base at least 6 in. (15 cm) square, equipped with adial micrometer graduated to 0.001 in. (0.02 mm), and ahemispherical pressure foot132 in. (0.80 mm) in diameter. Thefoot shall exert a force of not more than 1 ozf (0.28 N) at anypoint in its travel. The force shall be obtained by a

11、n appropriateweight. The plunger of the gage shall be perpendicular to theanvil.6. Test Specimen6.1 The specimen shall be a piece of flooring at least 9 by 9in. (230 by 230 mm).7. Calibration7.1 The calibration of the gage shall be verified by means ofgage blocks or shim stock traceable to national

12、standard ofknown thickness of the appropriate thickness for the depthsbeing measured.8. Conditioning8.1 Condition the specimens at least 24 h at 73.4 6 3.6F(23 6 2C) and 50 6 5 % relative humidity. Test at the sameconditions.9. Procedure9.1 Select the two types of areas on a specimen that are tobe e

13、xamined.9.2 Zero the gage at a random point on the higher area.9.3 Move the gage to a random spot in the second area andmeasure the depth.1This test method is under the jurisdiction ofASTM Committee F06 on ResilientFloor Coverings and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee F06.20 on TestMethod

16、ance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for theDevelopment of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.19.4 When measuring on a nominally

17、 flat wearing surface, donot place the tip close to a built-up shoulder area around adepressed spot; such a shoulder reading would give an errone-ous result.9.5 Make five measurements per specimen scattered atrandom over the specimen face. Record the measurements tothe nearest 0.001 in. (0.02 mm).10
