These test methods cover procedures for testing the static adhesional strength of rubber to rigid materials (in most cases metals).
Method A - Rubber Part Assembled Between Two Parallel Metal Plates.
Method B - 90° Stripping Test—Rubber Part Assembled to One Metal Plate.
Method C - Measuring Adhesion of Rubber to Metal with a Conical Specimen.
Method D - Adhesion Test—Post-Vulcanization (PV) Bonding of Rubber to Metal.
Method E - 90° Stripping Test—Rubber Tank Lining— Assembled to One Metal Plate.
Method F - Rubber Part Assembled Between Two Parallel Convex-Shaped Metal Plates.
Method G - Measuring Bond Durability for Rubber-to-Metal Bonded Components with a Double Shear Cylindrical Specimen.
Method H - Measuring Bond Durability for Rubber-to-Metal Bonded Components with a Quadruple Shear Specimen.
While the test method may be used with a wide variety of rigid materials, use of materials other than metals is the exception. For this reason, we have used the word “metal” in the text rather than “rigid materials.”
