ASTM D5963 Standard Test Method for Rubber Property - Abrasion (Rotary Drum Abrasive) Resistance

EUROLAB laboratory provides testing and compliance services within the scope of ASTM D5963 standard. The ASTM D5963 standard covers the measurement of wear resistance of rubbers (vulcanized thermoset rubbers and thermoplastic elastomers) that are subject to abrasive/frictional wear in actual use.

ASTM D5963 Standard Test Method for Rubber Property - Abrasion (Rotary Drum Abrasive) Resistance

Abrasion resistance is measured by moving a test piece across the surface of an abrasive plate mounted on a rotating drum and is expressed as the volume loss in cubic millimeters or the wear resistance index in percent.
For volume loss, a smaller number indicates better wear resistance, while a smaller number for the wear resistance index indicates poorer wear resistance.

Test results obtained with this test method should not be assumed to represent the wear behavior of rubber products experienced in actual service.

This test method measures the uniformity of wear on tires under abrasive conditions. This accelerated test can be used to evaluate abrasion resistance in a variety of rubbers, but abrasive wear conditions vary widely and the actual performance of rubber products during performance cycles cannot always be predicted.

Product/material types generally tested under this method:

  • tires
  • conveyor belts
  • automotive belts
  • hoses
  • Shoes
  • Floor
  • horoscope

Values ​​stated in SI units should be accepted as standard. Values ​​in parentheses are for informational purposes only.

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