ASTM F1060 Standard Test for Determination of Conductive and Compressive Heat Resistance

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of ASTM F1060 testing. This test method is used to measure the thermal protective properties of materials that provide thermal insulation when in contact with hot surfaces during a limited exposure of up to 1 minute.

During this limited time exposure, the temperature may reach a threshold approaching 316 °C (600 °F).

Because there is significant potential for injury, the thermal insulation properties of materials used to make protective clothing, including but not limited to woven fabrics, knitted fabrics, batts, sheet structures, and any composite, must demonstrate that they are.

Samples that can reach a temperature threshold sufficient to allow the estimation of a pain sensation or second-degree burn injury in human tissue will yield an invalid result.

This test method should be used to measure and describe the properties of materials, products or assemblies in response to heat under controlled laboratory conditions.

EUROLAB assists manufacturers with ASTM F1060 test compliance. Our test experts, with professional working mission and principles, offer you the best service and controlled testing process in our laboratories to our manufacturers and suppliers.
