1、Designation: F 1046 01Standard Guide forPreparing Artificially Worn Passenger and Light Truck Tiresfor Testing1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F 1046; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of

2、last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This guide outlines the preparation of artificially worntires by tread rubber removal (cutting or grinding, or both)

3、forsubsequent performance testing. The purpose is to permit thepreparation of test tires with a uniformly reduced tread groovedepth and tread geometry that will yield repeatable test resultswhile avoiding the time-consuming and costly over-the-roadnatural wearing of tires.1.2 The values stated in SI

4、 units are to be regarded as thestandard. The values given in parentheses are for informationonly.1.3 This standard 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 and health

Summary of Guide4.1 This guide outlines a method for groove depth measure-ment and for

An optional tirebreak-in period to follow this operation is described. Tech-niques for photography and measurements to document thefinal tread character

10、istics are described.5. Significance and Use5.1 Tires having reduced groove depth are required in sometire tests to determine changes in performance as a tire wearsin service. This guide describes the preparation of artificiallyworn tires. This guide is not meant to replace the developmentof worn ti

Further refinements of these techniques maybe made with increased field experience.5.2 The amount of tread rubber to be removed (groovedepth reduction) and the final surface texture are selectedaccording to the requirements of a

12、 particular testing program.5.3 The type of test program determines the actual tolerancenecessary on the final groove depth. For example, snowtraction will require very close control of the final groove depthwhile vehicle handling tests can accommodate a wider toler-ance on the final groove depth.6.
