29、ovided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-RR-F-191/1F 4.4.3 Tensile test of steel wire. The steel wire shall be tested for tensile strength in accordance with ASTM A370 (see 3.2). 4.4.4 PVC coating tests. 4.4.4.1 PVC coating thickness. Determine

30、thickness of PVC coating by stripping the coating and measuring the diameter of the wire as in 4.3.1. One-half the difference between this measurement and the outside diameter of the coated wire will be used to determine the thickness of the coating for conformance to 3.7. 4.4.4.2 Accelerated aging

31、of a PVC coated wire. A sample of PVC coated wire from which the fabric is woven shall be subjected to accelerated aging by exposure for 1,000 hours at a black panel temperature of 145 9 Fahrenheit (F) (63 5 Celsius (C) in accordance with ASTM D1499. After completion of this aging, the coated wire s

32、hall be examined to determine compliance with 3.7.3. Shrinkage of the coating of more than 1/16 inch per foot of length, significant visual change in color or gloss, or breaks, cracks, crazing, crumbling, or other visual forms of failure shall be cause for rejection. In addition, samples of the coat

33、ed wire which have completed this aging process must meet the requirements of the mandrel bend test of 4.4.4.3. 4.4.4.2.1 Frequency of test. Unless otherwise specified (see 6.1), the test for accelerated aging shall be performed on the initial inspection, and thereafter only when changes are made in

34、 the PVC coating. 4.4.4.3 Mandrel bend test. After the sample has been subjected to the accelerated aging of 4.4.4.2, it shall be tested as follows: A 12-inch length of PVC coated wire removed from the fabric, including bends and straight sections, but not including twists or knuckles, shall be used

35、 as the sample. This sample shall be cold soaked at -20 F (-29 C) for 1 hour. The sample shall be removed from the cold source and within 30 seconds wrapped around a mandrel one complete turn (360). The mandrel shall have a maximum diameter of 10 times the outside diameter of the wire being tested.

36、The coating on the wire shall exhibit no breaks, cracks, crazing, crumbling or other visual forms of failure after completion of this test (see 3.7.4). 5. PREPARATION FOR DELIVERY (See RR-F-191/GEN) 6. NOTES (This section contains information of a general or explanatory nature that may be helpful, b

37、ut is not mandatory.) 6.1 Ordering data. Purchasers should select the preferred options permitted herein and include the following information in acquisition documents: a. Title, number, and date of this specification. b. Size required (see 1.2). c. Type, mesh, size, wire gage size, and fabric heigh

38、t required (see 1.2, 3.3, 3.9, and 3.12). d. When the steel wire is other than specified (see 3.2). e. When weight of zinc or Zn-5Al-MM coating is other than specified (see 3.4). f. When method of applying the PVC coating is not manufacturers option and method specified (see 3.7 and 6.4). 6 Provided

39、 by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-RR-F-191/1F g. Color of PVC coated wire is other than cited and color required (3.7.1). h. When color of PVC coated wire is other than cited and color required (see 3.7.1). i. When diamond counts are not as spe

40、cified and diamond count required (see 3.10). j. Type of selvage if other than standard (see 3.11). k. Length of fabric if other than standard (see 3.11). l. Frequency of test for accelerated aging of PVC coated wire (see 4.4.4.2.1). 6.2 Zinc-coated fabric. The surface of zinc coatings, particularly

41、 those produced by hot-dip galvanizing, are not always smooth and devoid of irregularities. Such irregularities ordinarily do not warrant rejection of zinc-coated fabric. Thickness of the zinc coat can be determined, using 1.2 ounces of zinc per square foot equivalent to a coating thickness of 2.0 m

42、ils (0.0020 inch) (see 3.4 and ASTM A392 for more zinc-coated wire thickness option). 6.3 Aluminum-coated fabric. Discoloration of the wire and rust formations on the cut ends are inherent characteristics of this material and does not warrant rejection of aluminum-coated fabric. Thickness of the alu

43、minum coat can be determined using 1 ounce of aluminum per square foot of surface equivalent to a coating thickness of 4.35 mils (0.00435 inch) (see 3.5). 6.4 PVC coated fabric. There are different PVC coated fabrics on the market . Some of the ways in which they may vary are: The methods of applyin

44、g the PVC coating, wall thickness of the PVC coating, adhesion of the PVC coating to the wire, and cost. These factors should be taken into consideration when selecting a fence fabric for different environmental applications. 6.5 Changes from previous issue. The margins of this specification are mar

45、ked with vertical lines to indicate where changes (additions, modifications, corrections, deletions) from the previous issue were made.
