EN 1465 Adhesives, Determination of Tensile Lap-Shear Strength of Bonded Assemblies

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of EN 1465 testing. This European standard specifies a method for determining the tensile thrust-shear strength of bonded assemblies when tested on a standard sample and under specific preparation and test conditions.

Persons using this standard should be familiar with normal laboratory practices, if any. This standard does not purport to address all, if any, security issues associated with its use. It is the user's responsibility to establish appropriate safety and health practices and ensure compliance with regulatory requirements.

It is understood that some of the materials allowed in this standard may have an adverse environmental impact. It will be omitted from this standard to the extent possible, as technological advantages lead to acceptable alternatives for these materials.

The bonded surface must be properly treated to achieve an optimum bond. Surface treatments shall comply with the manufacturer's instructions or EN 13887, unless otherwise specified. The adhesive should be applied and cured according to the adhesive manufacturer's recommendations. In the absence of such recommendations, the procedure will be such that an optimum bond is achieved with minimal changes.

Special care should be taken when preparing individual samples to ensure proper alignment and that the bond thicknesses are as uniform and constant as possible.
