Rubber- or plastics-coated fabrics — Determination of tear resistance — Part 2: Ballistic pendulum method

This document specifies a method for the determination of tear resistance based on the action of an active force applied to a notched test piece.

The test can be carried out on:

  • test pieces that have been conditioned in a standard atmosphere; or
  • test pieces that have undergone pre-treatment, e.g. water immersion.

The results obtained by this method cannot be compared with those obtained by methods involving constant rate of tear.
