Standard Test Method for Measuring Cut Resistance of Materials Used in Protective Clothing with Tomodynamometer Test Equipment

active, Most Current
Publication Date: 1 March 2023
Status: active
Page Count: 11
ICS Code (Protective clothing): 13.340.10
scope:

This test method covers the measurement of the cut resistance of a material when mounted on a specimen holder and subjected to a cutting edge under a specified load using a tomodynamometer.2

This procedure is not valid for high-porosity materials which allow cutting edge contact with the mounting surface prior to cutting.

Test apparatus may have limitations in testing materials with a thickness greater than 20 mm.

The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses after SI units are provided for information only and are not considered standard.

This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.

2 Derived from the Greek tomo, to cut or slice, dynamo, force or energy, and meter, to measure. From Masse, S., Lara, J., Sirard, C., and Daigle, R., "Basic Principles Used in the Development of a New Cut-Test Machine for Standardization," ASTM Special Technical Publication No. 1273, 1997, pp. 66-83.
