ASTM F 1087 - 02 (Reapproved 2016) Standard Test Method for Linear Dimensional Stability of a Gasket Material to Moisture

Current edition approved Oct. 1, 2016. Published October 2016. Originally approved in 1988. Last previous edition approved in 2009 as F1087 – 02 (2009). — 2 p.
This test method covers a procedure to determine the stability of a gasket material to linear dimensional change due to hygroscopic expansion and contraction. It subjects a sampleto extremes, that is, oven drying and complete immersion in water, that have shown good correlation to low and high relative humidities.
