1.1 This test method covers the determination of the abrasion resistance of textile fabrics using the Martindale abrasion tester. This test method may not be usable for some fabric constructions having a pile longer than 2 mm (0.08 in.), or for fabrics thicker than 3 mm ( 1/8 in.), since such fabrics cannot be mounted in the specimen holder.

1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard; the values in SI units are provided as information only.

1.3 This standard may involve hazardous materials, operations, and equipment. This standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. See Note 2 and Note A1.1.

Note 1-Other procedures for measuring the abrasion resistance of textile fabrics are given in Test Methods D3884 (Rotary Platform, Double-Head Method); D3885 (Flexing and Abrasion Method); D3886 (Inflated Diaphragm Method); D4157 (Oscillatory Cylinder Method); D4158 (Uniform Abrasion Method); AATCC 93 Impeller Tumble Method.
