EN 14292:2005

This European Standard specifies a test method to determine the heat resistance of wood adhesives under static load and increasing temperature conditions. The test assesses the adhesive's ability to resist sustained or continuous loading at temperatures well above normal room temperature, or in conditions where service temperatures are variable or cyclic. NOTEThe procedure described is based on a test developed in Switzerland, known as the HRT'92 test. It uses test pieces described in EN 302-1 and EN 205, a static loading device and a means for increasing test pieces temperature at a specific rate.
