Bibliography

Describes the method to be used to select, prepare, condition and test samples of typical raw materials, to determine the long term performance of gaskets and weatherstripping under the conditions laid down in the test after ageing at the maximum working temperature.

This part 4 of prEN 33/WI131/247 specifies the method to be used to select, condition and test standard extruded samples of typical raw materials, to determine the percentage of long term recovery after being deflected through its working deflection range under the conditions layed down in the test. The test has been devised to cover all likely raw materials.
