GMW 14163 Test for Tapered Connection Tensile Properties

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of GMW 14163 testing. GMW 14163 is a General Motors standard that outlines the requirements for taper pull-out characteristics. A taper joint is a type of mechanical joint designed to connect two parts at a taper angle. The joint is secured by applying a clamping force that causes the taper to pull the two parts together.

The retraction properties of a tapered joint refer to the amount of force required to pull the two parts together and create a secure connection. These properties are important because they determine the strength and reliability of the joint.

GMW 14163 specifies test methods and requirements for taper joint tensile properties for automotive applications. The standard outlines test procedures for measuring tensile force, taper angle and joint length.

The standard also defines acceptance criteria for taper tensile properties based on specific application and performance requirements. Acceptance criteria typically include minimum and maximum values ​​for pull-in force, taper angle and link length.

Overall, GMW 14163 is an important standard for ensuring the quality and reliability of tapered joints used in automotive applications. It helps ensure that the connections meet the required performance requirements and can withstand the stresses and loads encountered in typical automotive use.
