19、 End item testing. The overshoes shall be tested as specified in paragraphs 3.2.1 through 3.3.5.The sample unit shall be one overshoe for each test method and the lot size shall be expressed in units ofone overshoe. Requirements are applicable to the individual unit. The thickness shall be expressed

20、 asan average of three measurements taken as close as possible to the specific points indicated on thedrawing. The micrometer (B.C. Ames Micrometer Model Nos. 56122 or 56182) shall be firmlymounted on a table vice so that only the overboot is manipulated when taking the thicknessmeasurements.3.3.1 B

21、reaking strength of fastening loop. One loop of the fastening loop shall be placed over a fixedsuspension hook. A suitable clamp shall be attached through the center of the tab and weights appliedin increments not exceeding 10 pounds until a total load of 25 pounds has been applied. The weightsshall

22、 hang freely exerting a 25-pound load on the fastening loop for a period of 30 minutes. Any loopthat breaks during the 30-minute period shall be a test failure.3.3.2 Pull test. The vinyl specimen shall be 4 inches long and 1-1/2 inches wide and shall be cut fromthe overshoe so that the middle of the

23、 button is in the center of the specimen. The specimen shall bemounted in the button pull test fixture as shown on Drawing 2-1-1371 and the test conducted using atensile testing machine operating at a speed of 12 inches per minute. A test failure shall be reported ifeither the button and fastener se

24、parate or if the fastener pulls through the vinyl upper at a pull of 35pounds or less.3.3.3 Uniform molding and curing test. The sole from an overshoe from each sample unit shall be cutwith a sharp knife along the center line from the toe to the heel. Evidence of any blister, peeling,delamination, o

25、r separation of material shall be a test failure.Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-A-A-5952043.3.4 Tensile strength test at 100 percent elongation after immersion in Medium No. 6.
