EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of ASTM E303 testing. This standard covers the procedure for measuring surface friction properties using a British pendulum slip resistance tester.
The British pendulum tester is a dynamic pendulum impact tester used to measure energy loss when a rubber slider edge is pushed over a test surface. The tester is suitable for laboratory and field tests on flat surfaces and for polish value measurements on curved laboratory samples from accelerated polish wheel tests.
The measured values, BPN = British pendulum (tester) number for flat surfaces and polish values for accelerated polishing wheel specimens represent the friction properties obtained with the apparatus and the procedures outlined herein and do not necessarily match or correlate with other lubricity measuring equipment. .
Values stated in SI units will be accepted as standard. Values in parentheses are for informational purposes only.
This standard does not purport to address all 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 to determine the applicability of regulatory restrictions prior to use.
