Product description

_{BS EN 1608 – Thermal Insulating Products for Building Applications. Determination of Tensile Strength Parallel to Faces}

 

EN 1608 specifies the equipment and procedures for determining the tensile strength of a product parallel to its faces.

It is applicable to thermal insulating products.

A test specimen is attached to two clamps which are fastened in a tensile testing machine and pulled apart at a given speed.

The maximum tensile force is recorded and the tensile strength of the test specimen is calculated

*** Before conducting this ISO standard, it is important to read the entire specification. Standards can be obtained from appropriate standard authorities.
