EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, offers precise and rapid testing services within the scope of EN 320 testing. This European Standard specifies a method for determining the resistance of fibreboards and particleboards to axial pulling of screws.
EN 320 is a European standard that specifies a test method to determine the resistance of particleboards and fibreboards to axial pulling of screws. This standard is important in the wood products industry as it helps evaluate the structural integrity and suitability of these boards for a variety of applications where screws or fasteners are used, such as furniture and construction.
The main purpose of the EN 320 standard is to provide a standard method for assessing the ability of particleboards and fiberboards to securely retain screws when subjected to axial tensile forces. This test evaluates the mechanical properties of the material and its suitability for applications where screws are used for assembly or fastening.
The test sample is fixed in a test apparatus and screws are driven into the sample under controlled conditions. Screws are typically driven perpendicular to the surface of the board.
EN 320 helps manufacturers, builders and consumers evaluate the suitability of particleboards and fibreboards for applications where screws are used to join or fasten these materials. By following the standard's testing procedures and performance criteria, stakeholders can make informed decisions about the materials they use and ensure the structural integrity of products and structures.
