ISO International Standard

This document specifies a generic test method to determine the abrasion wear characteristics of hardmetals.

The test is appropriate for use in situations where test laboratories have a need to simulate abrasive damage. The procedure includes information which enables the test to be used in a variety of different conditions:

a) with counterface wheels of different stiffness (for example steel and rubber);

b) wet and dry;

c) different abrasive sizes;

d) different chemical environments.
