EN 14257 Adhesives, Wood Adhesives, Standard Test for Determination of Tensile Strength of High-Temperature Lapped Joints

EUROLAB laboratory provides testing and compliance services within the scope of EN 14257 test standard. This standard specifies a method for testing the strength of wood adhesives at 80°C.

EN 14257 Adhesives, Wood Adhesives, Standard Test for Determination of Tensile Strength of High-Temperature Lapped Joints

The symmetrically bonded lap joint between two wood adhesives is subjected to a controlled temperature heating period and then stretched to break with a longitudinal force parallel to the grain.

Tensile tester capable of maintaining a constant strain rate, as described in ISO 5893. The jaws shall be mounted in such a way as to allow self-alignment when pulling test pieces.

The results of the tests where deterioration of wood occurs at values ​​below the specified minimum values ​​are invalid. Test pieces showing bent or other irregularities in form are valid if they meet the requirements; otherwise, or if visual inspection shows that the adhesive was not applied correctly, the results are invalid.
