This document establishes a system of designation for profiles made of cellular unplasticized poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC-UE) intended to be used for building applications. This system is intended to be used in product specification after the application is specified.
NOTE   It is intended to use this method for the designation of PVC-UE profiles for information related to technical literature of the manufacturer, not for the marking of the products.
This part is applicable to PVC-UE profiles of any colour, obtained by a mono-extrusion or a co-extrusion process, with or without surface finishing (e.g. foil, paint or print).
This document defines minimum requirements for the surface finishing of PVC-UE profiles.
Profiles for the management of electrical power cables, communication cables and power track systems used for the distribution of electrical power, profiles for windows or doors and profiles for guttering are not covered by this document.

This document specifies a method for determination of the cold compressive strength of dense shaped refractory products.
Shaped refractories are those which have fixed geometry and dimensions when delivered to the user. This document is accordingly applicable to standard shape refractory bricks, but also special shapes refractory products and pre-cast products.

This part of ISO 8894 describes a hot-wire (parallel) method for the determination of the thermal conductivity of refractory products and materials. It is applicable to dense and insulating shaped products and to powdered or granular materials (see 6.2), for thermal conductivities of less than 25 W/m·K. The limits are imposed by the thermal diffusivity of the test material and therefore by the dimensions of the test pieces; higher thermal conductivities can be measured if larger pieces are used. Electrically conducting materials cannot be measured.
NOTE 1 The thermal conductivity of products with a hydraulic or chemical bond can be affected by the appreciable amount of water that is retained after hardening or setting and is released on firing. These materials can therefore require pretreatment. The nature and extent of such pretreatment, and the period for which the test piece is held at the measurement temperature as a preliminary to carrying out the test, are details that are outside the scope of this part of ISO 8894 and are agreed between the parties concerned.
NOTE 2 In general, it is difficult to make measurements on anisotropic materials and the use of this method for such materials is also agreed between the parties concerned.

This document specifies a method for the determination of the modulus of rupture of dense and insulating shaped refractory products at ambient temperature, under conditions of a constant rate of increase of stress.
Shaped refractories are those which have fixed geometry and dimensions when delivered to the user. This document is accordingly applicable to standard shape refractory bricks, but also special shapes refractory products and pre-cast products.
This document is also applicable to unshaped refractories (see ISO 1927-6) after preparation of test specimens according to ISO 1927-5.

This document establishes a system of designation for profiles made of unplasticized poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC-U) intended to be used for building applications. This system is intended to be used in product specification after the application is specified.
NOTE   It is intended to use this system for the designation of PVC-U profiles for information related to technical literature of the manufacturer, not for the marking of the products.
This part is applicable to PVC-U profiles of any colour, obtained by a mono-extrusion or a co-extrusion process, with or without surface finishing (e.g. foil, paint or print).
This document defines minimum requirements for the surface finishing of PVC-U profiles.
Profiles for the management of electrical power cables, communication cables and power track systems used for the distribution of electrical power, profiles for windows or doors and profiles for guttering are not covered by this document.

The scope of the present document is to provide the elements needed for elaborating the programme execution logic and drafting the execution plan for the realization of a product.
NOTE 1   In this document, the term “logic” alone is sometimes used for “execution logic”.
NOTE 2   In this document, the term “product” is used to designate the object of the program concerned, and the term “system” is used to designate the product for anything related to system engineering.
NOTE 3   The product is also considered a “system-of-interest” and its enabling systems are also taken into account.
The execution logic and plan enable customers/suppliers to reach an agreement on how their respective processes and activities can be organized.
The aim is to enable each actor in the programme to manage their activities with sufficient visibility of the sequencing of the other stakeholdersʼ activities.
This document belongs to the documents supporting EN 9200 relating to the programme management specification.
The present document describes the principles of programme execution logic and defines the corresponding management requirements. This description is supplemented:
—   on the one hand, in terms of execution logic principles, by:
—   the challenges of a basic logic common to all actors (synchronization);
—   the applicable criteria to set up this basic logic;
—   the translation of this logic into the programme processes;
—   on the other hand, in terms of implementing the execution logic, by:
—   the procedures for practical implementation of the management requirements defined in EN 9200;
—   adaptations of the logic according to the various constraints and specificities of the programme, and justification of these adaptations;
—   the consistency between the basic logic at system level and the logics at subsystem and constituent levels.
The breakdown of clauses as used in this document gives a gradual understanding of the approach to be adopted to construct an execution logic. For instance:
—   Clause 5 presents the end-purpose of a programme execution logic as well as the associated basic concepts and the constituents of this logic;
—   Clause 6 describes and characterizes the process for building the logic;
—   Clause 7 concerns change control to the execution logic;
—   Clause 8 concentrates on the importance of capitalization and lessons learned.
This document applies to aeronautical, space and defence programmes. The principles can be extended to other areas of activity.
It applies to realization of a single product, of several samples or of a series. It applies to any customer/supplier level, while ensuring consistency between successive levels.
The principles described concern all programme actors, from initial expression of need through to closure of the programme.

This document specifies the laboratory method for measuring the sound absorption performance of road traffic noise reducing devices in reverberant conditions. It covers the assessment of the intrinsic sound absorption performance of devices that can reasonably be assembled inside the testing facility described in EN ISO 354.
This method is not intended for the determination of the intrinsic characteristics of sound absorption of noise reducing devices to be installed on roads in non-reverberant conditions.
The test method in EN ISO 354 referred to in this document excludes devices that act as weakly damped resonators. Some devices will depart significantly from these requirements and in these cases, care is needed in interpreting the results.

This document specifies the requirements and general principles governing the biological evaluation of medical devices within a risk management process according to ISO 14971.
This document applies to the biological evaluation of medical devices that have direct contact or indirect contact with either:
—     a patient's body during intended use or reasonably foreseeable misuse; or
—     the body of other users who are not patients, if the medical device is intended for personal protection (e.g. medical gloves, surgical masks).
Biological evaluation assesses the biological safety of the medical device by considering the biological risks associated with:
—     constituents of a medical device; and
—     tissue-device interactions (including physical effects).
The biological evaluation specified in this document can address the biological safety of the medical device, considering the life cycle from design and development through initial use of the finished medical device to final decommissioning or withdrawal from use. The biological evaluation considers both the biological safety of the finished device in first use, and the significance of any changes to the medical device which can occur throughout the life cycle. However, the evaluation of risks related to environmental impacts of decommissioning of medical devices are not within the scope of this document. This document does not mandate re-testing of medical devices that are already on the market and have established and acceptable safety profiles (see 6.6.2).
This document can be useful to support clinical or usability evaluations of medical devices. For example, a biological evaluation is a pre-requisite for conducting a clinical trial. This means that principles outlined in this document can be applied to the evaluation of prototype or development stage devices, as well as to finished medical devices.
Other parts of the ISO 10993 series cover specific aspects of biological evaluation, such as chemical characterization, biological testing, sample preparation, animal welfare and toxicological risk assessment.
For some types of medical devices, specific requirements from other standards (outside the ISO 10993 series) can be considered with a justification for the approach taken if there are differences between the requirements of the ISO 10993 series and those provided in other standards. For example, the ISO 18562 series provides specific requirements for biological evaluation of breathing gas pathway medical devices and ISO 7405 provides specific requirements for biological evaluation of dental devices.
The evaluation of risks related to infectious agents [e.g. bacteria, moulds, yeasts, viruses, transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) agents] is not within the scope of this document.
NOTE 1        The evaluation of bacterial endotoxins is addressed by ISO 11737-3.
NOTE 2        The evaluation of risks related to viruses, TSE agents and other pathogens originating from materials of animal origin is addressed by the ISO 22442 series.

This document specifies requirements and test methods for E20 petrol marketed and delivered as such, containing a minimum oxygen content of 3,7 % (m/m) and a maximum of 8,0 % (m/m). The fuel has a maximum of 20,0 % (V/V) ethanol.
It is applicable to fuel for use in spark-ignition petrol-fuelled engines and vehicles.
This document is complementary to EN 228, which describes unleaded petrol containing an oxygen content up to 3,7 % (m/m) and a maximum ethanol content of 10 % (V/V).
NOTE 1   For general petrol engine vehicle warranty, E20 petrol might not be suitable for all vehicles and it is advised that the recommendations of the vehicle manufacturer are consulted before use. E20 petrol might need a validation step to confirm the compatibility of the fuel with the vehicle, which for some existing engines might still be needed.
NOTE 2   For the purposes of this document, the terms “% (m/m)” and “% (V/V)” are used to represent respectively the mass fraction, µ, and the volume fraction, φ.

This document is a product specification, giving performance requirements for emergency safety eyewash units connected to the water supply. It is applicable to plumbed-in eyewash units only.

NOTE   Attention is drawn to national regulations which can apply in respect of the installation and use of eyewash units.

This document specifies the identification of radionuclides and the measurement of their activity in soil using in situ gamma spectrometry with portable systems equipped with germanium or scintillation detectors.
This document is suitable to rapidly assess the activity of artificial and natural radionuclides deposited on or present in soil layers of large areas of a site under investigation.
This document can be used in connection with radionuclide measurements of soil samples in the laboratory (see ISO 18589-3) in the following cases:
—     routine surveillance of the impact of radioactivity released from nuclear installations or of the evolution of radioactivity in the region;
—     investigations of accident and incident situations;
—     planning and surveillance of remedial action;
—     decommissioning of installations or the clearance of materials.
It can also be used for the identification of airborne artificial radionuclides, when assessing the exposure levels inside buildings or during waste disposal operations.
Following a nuclear accident, in situ gamma spectrometry is a powerful method for rapid evaluation of the gamma activity deposited onto the soil surface as well as the surficial contamination of flat objects.
NOTE            The method described in this document is not suitable when the spatial distribution of the radionuclides in the environment is not precisely known (influence quantities, unknown distribution in soil) or in situations with very high photon flux. However, the use of small volume detectors with suitable electronics allows measurements to be performed under high photon flux.

This document specifies the requirements for the design and performance of threaded pipe fittings in malleable cast iron with black or hot dip galvanized surface.

This document is a part of a package of standards: EN 12080, EN 12081, EN 12082-1 and EN 12082-2.
This document specifies the principles and methods for deployment of the system of axlebox rolling bearing(s), housing, seal(s) and grease, required for reliable operation of trains on European networks.
It covers the conformity assessment with respect to design requirements on the rolling bearing(s) according EN 12080 and grease according EN 12081 as well as the performance of (rig) tests according to EN 12082-1. This document is historically developed for outboard applications with rotating inner rings, but can be used for vehicles with inboard bearing arrangements with rotation inner rings.
The present document describes the complete deployment procedure for new axleboxes and it specifies the necessary type and extent of testing. For certain cases and based on a documented risk assessment, a reduced deployment procedure is described.
This document only applies to axleboxes equipped with rolling bearings and greases according to EN 12080 and EN 12081.
It is not within the scope of EN 12082-2 to specify the technical details of the testing procedures, these are covered by EN 12082-1.
It is not within the scope of EN 12082-2 to define the validation procedure of box housings, sleeves or coves from a structural point of view. The relevance of these parts in the scope of this document is limited to the interaction with the axle box rolling bearing with respect to the required service.

This part of IEC 62271 provides guidance to suppliers, manufacturers, users, and waste operators of high-voltage switchgear and controlgear as well as their assemblies having a rated voltage above 1 kV AC and 1,5 kV DC, together with their associated auxiliary equipment, on environmentally conscious design, and on assessing environmental impacts when used in systems. This document also gives guidance on effective communication of environmental information throughout the entire life cycle.
This document provides guidance on the process and general aspects to select UN sustainable development goals (UN sustainable development goals (SDG)), especially those dealing with health and environmental impacts and their assessments, represented respectively by:
• SDG 3-Good Health and Well-being;
• SDG 6-Clean Water and Sanitation;
• SDG 7-Affordable and Clean Energy;
• SDG 12-Responsible Consumption and Production;
• SDG 13-Climate Action;
• SDG 14-Life Below Water;
• SDG 15-Life on Land.
This document gives guidance on the process and general aspects to implement environmentally conscious product design (ECD) principles, as given in IEC 62430, essential
for high-voltage electrical power equipment and power control equipment.
This document gives guidance on executing the life cycle assessment (LCA) based on product category rules (PCR) in accordance with IEC 63366, ISO 14040 and ISO 14044 and on applying the Type III environmental declaration in accordance with ISO 14025, both for high-voltage switchgear and controlgear. This guidance provides standardized product specific rules (PSR) summarized as follows:
1) Common rules for the LCA process describing functional units, system boundaries, life cycle inventory analysis, scenarios, environmental impact categories;
2) Common rules for communicating information about the presence of regulated substances and the materials contained in the product, according to IEC 62474;
3) Common rules for communicating information about the end-of-life treatment of the product including material efficiency.
This document does not address the environmental declaration programme, however it can be used by program operators.
This document focuses on describing the LCA process referring to the functional unit, system boundary, scenarios, etc.
Owing to variability of influencing factors, such as flows, allocations, not balanced and timestable energy mix under different programmes, equipment customization, durability related to environmental conditions, it is not possible to compare two similar high-voltage switchgear and controlgear analysed in different contexts.
This document does not address by-products from arcing which are generated in sufficiently small quantities such that their environmental impact can be neglected. Any by-product generated by arcing during the use of equipment is strongly dependent on operating conditions and cannot a priori be qualified nor quantified. However, they are not expected to be released in air and will be managed at end-of-life by a dedicated process.
EXAMPLE
During the use of high-voltage switchgear and controlgear the handlings of normally arced gas are covered by IEC 62271-4. When the volume of gaseous by-product is below 1 % of normally arced gas, it is not considered compared to the cut-off rules specified in this document. The scenarios related to the system boundary do not take into account leakages from failures except if an agreement is reached on this between user and manufacturer (see Table 7, item h).
Power transformers, low-voltage switchgear and controlgear, and the interconnections with such equipment are not covered by this document. Therefore, assemblies according to IEC 62271-202 or IEC 62271-212 comprising any of the above equipment are not within the scope of this document.
This document supports material efficiency for circular economy. However, one of the major issues related to remanufacturing is the consideration of used parts

IEC TS 63283-2: 2025 has the goal of analyzing the impact of smart manufacturing on the daily operation of an industrial facility. It focusses on the perspective of automation and control of the production system, but also on the supporting processes of ordering, supply chain management, design, engineering and commissioning, operational technology, life cycle management, maintenance management, and resource management.
These recommendations are accomplished on the basis of several carefully selected use cases that are familiar to manufacturing industry. Therefore, each use case is described, followed by an analysis of the possible influence of smart manufacturing and the assessment of the impact on existing and future standardization.
This first edition cancels and replaces the first edition of IEC TR 63283-2 published in 2022. This edition constitutes a technical revision.

1.1 This document specifies a sampling method for a consignment of instant coffee, shipped in 10 package units or more. This document is applicable to cases which have inner linings of moisture-resistant material hermetically sealed because of the hygroscopic nature of instant coffee and which are in package units greater than 10 kg net mass, typically up to 50 kg. This document is also applicable to units of more than 50 kg, usually called “big bags” or “supersacks”. The cases are generally made of cardboard of appropriate strength and the big bags are made of suitable plastic material. 1.2 This document is also applicable to the selection and preparation of a sufficiently representative sample of the consignment, which is intended: a) to serve as a basis for an offer for sale; b) for examination to verify that the instant coffee to be offered for sale satisfies the producer’s sales specification; c) for examination to determine one or more of the characteristics of the instant coffee for technical, commercial, administrative and arbitration purposes; d) for retention as a reference sample for use, if required, in litigation. 1.3 This document is applicable to all types of instant coffee, as defined in ISO 3509, contained in all types of units with liners, with the exception stated in 1.4. 1.4 For bulk density and particle size, this document is applicable to spray-dried powder and freeze-dried instant coffees only, as defined in ISO 3509, due to the intrinsic fragility of particles of agglomerated instant coffee, which leads to greater breakdown and headspace in the final packed units for the consumer.

1.1 This document - amplifies the general principles for designing experiments for the numerical estimation of the precision of measurement methods by means of a collaborative interlaboratory experiment, - provides a detailed practical description of the basic method for routine use in estimating the precision of measurement methods, and - provides guidance to all personnel concerned with designing, performing or analysing the results of the tests for estimating precision. NOTE Modifications to this basic method for particular purposes are given in other parts of ISO 5725. 1.2 It is concerned exclusively with measurement methods which yield measurements on a continuous scale and give a single value as the test result, although this single value can be the outcome of a calculation from a set of observations. 1.3 It assumes that in the design and performance of the precision experiment, all the principles as laid down in ISO 5725-1 are observed. The basic method uses the same number of test results in each laboratory, with each laboratory analysing the same levels of test sample; i.e. a balanced uniform-level experiment. The basic method applies to procedures that have been standardized and are in regular use in a number of laboratories. 1.4 The statistical model of ISO 5725-1:2023, Clause 5, is accepted as a suitable basis for the interpretation and analysis of the test results, the distribution of which is approximately normal. 1.5 The basic method, as described in this document, (usually) estimates the precision of a measurement method: a) when it is required to determine the repeatability and reproducibility standard deviations as defined in ISO 5725-1; b) when the materials to be used are homogeneous, or when the effects of heterogeneity can be included in the precision values; c) when the use of a balanced uniform-level layout is acceptable. 1.6 The same approach can be used to make a preliminary estimate of precision for measurement methods which have not reached standardization or are not in routine use.

This document establishes the arrangement, requirements and direction of movement of the basic controls for slewing, load lifting and lowering, and boom luffing and telescoping, on mobile cranes as defined in ISO 4306-2. It deals with bi-directional controls and the basic arrangement and requirements for cross-shift levers (multi-directional controls). It is intended to be used in conjunction with ISO 7752-1.

ABSTRACT
This specification covers the physical requirements and testing of three types of lap cement for use with asphalt roll roofing. Type I is a brushing consistency lap cement intended for use in the exposed-nailing method of roll roofing application, and contains no mineral or other stabilizers. This type is further divided into two grades, as follows: Grade 1, which is made with an air-blown asphalt; and Grade 2, which is made with a vacuum-reduced or steam-refined asphalt. Both Types II and III, on the other hand, are heavy brushing or light troweling consistency lap cement intended for use in the concealed-nailing method of roll roofing application, only that Type II cement contains a quantity of short-fibered asbestos, while Type III cement contains a quantity of mineral or other stabilizers, or both, but contains no asbestos. The lap cements shall be sampled for testing, and shall adhere to specified values of the following properties: water content; distillation (total distillate at given temperatures); softening point of residue; solubility in trichloroethylene; and strength at indicated age.
SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers lap cement consisting of asphalt dissolved in a volatile petroleum solvent with or without mineral or other stabilizers, or both, for use with roll roofing. The fibered version of these cements excludes the use of asbestos fibers.  
1.2 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in nonconformance with the standard.  
1.3 The following precautionary caveat applies only to the test method portion, Section 6, of this specification: This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.  
1.4 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.

SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
5.1 Since the information provided by this test method is largely qualitative in nature, specific limits covering the following characteristics are required in referring to this test method in specifications for kerosene:  
5.1.1 Duration of the test: 16 h is understood, if not otherwise specified;  
5.1.2 Permissible change in flame shape and dimensions during the test;  
5.1.3 Description of the acceptable appearance of the chimney deposit.
SCOPE
1.1 This test method covers the qualitative determination of the burning properties of kerosene to be used for illuminating purposes. (Warning—Combustible. Vapor harmful.)
Note 1: The corresponding Energy Institute (IP) test method is IP 10 which features a quantitative evaluation of the wick-char-forming tendencies of the kerosene, whereas Test Method D187 features a qualitative performance evaluation of the kerosene. Both test methods subject the kerosene to somewhat more severe operating conditions than would be experienced in typical designated applications.  
1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.  
1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. Specific warning statements appear throughout the test method.  
1.4 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.

SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
4.1 Flash X-ray facilities provide intense bremsstrahlung radiation environments, usually in a single sub-microsecond pulse, which often fluctuates in amplitude, shape, and spectrum from shot to shot. Therefore, appropriate dosimetry must be fielded on every exposure to characterize the environment, see ICRU Report 34. These intense bremsstrahlung sources have a variety of applications which include the following:
(1) Studies of the effects of X-rays and gamma rays on materials.
(2) Studies of the effects of radiation on electronic devices such as transistors, diodes, and capacitors.
(3) Computer code validation studies.  
4.2 This guide is written to assist the experimenter in selecting the needed dosimetry systems for use at pulsed X-ray facilities. This guide also provides a brief summary on how to use each of the dosimetry systems. Other guides (see Section 2) provide more detailed information on selected dosimetry systems in radiation environments and should be consulted after an initial decision is made on the appropriate dosimetry system to use. There are many key parameters which describe a flash X-ray source, such as dose, dose rate, spectrum, pulse width, etc., such that typically no single dosimetry system can measure all the parameters simultaneously. However, it is frequently the case that not all key parameters must be measured in a given experiment.
SCOPE
1.1 This guide provides assistance in selecting and using dosimetry systems in flash X-ray experiments. Both dose and dose rate techniques are described.  
1.2 Operating characteristics of flash X-ray sources are given, with emphasis on the spectrum of the photon output.  
1.3 Assistance is provided to relate the measured dose to the response of a device under test (DUT). The device is assumed to be a semiconductor electronic part or system.  
1.4 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.

1.2 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in nonconformance with the standard.  
1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

ABSTRACT
This specification covers emulsified asphalt suitable for use as a protective coating for built-up roofs and other exposed surfaces with specified inclines. The emulsified asphalts are grouped into three types, as follows: Type I, which contains fillers or fibers including asbestos; Type II, which contains fillers or fibers other than asbestos; and Type III, which do not contain any form of fibrous reinforcement. These types are further subdivided into two classes, as follows: Class 1, which is prepared with mineral colloid emulsifying agents; and Class 2, which is prepared with chemical emulsifying agents. Other than consistency and homogeneity of the final products, they shall also conform to specified physical property requirements such as weight, residue by evaporation, ash content of residue, water content flammability, firm set, flexibility, resistance to water, and behavior during heat and direct flame tests.
SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers emulsified asphalt suitable for use as a protective coating for built-up roofs and other exposed surfaces with inclines of not less than 4 % or 42 mm/m [1/2 in./ft].  
1.2 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system are not necessarily exact equivalents; therefore, to ensure conformance with the standard, each system shall be used independently of the other, and values from the two systems shall not be combined.  
1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.  
1.4 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.

SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
5.1 This test method measures a lubricant's ability to protect hypoid final drive axles from abrasive wear, adhesive wear, plastic deformation, and surface fatigue when subjected to low-speed, high-torque conditions. Lack of protection can lead to premature gear or bearing failure, or both.  
5.2 This test method is used, or referred to, in specifications and classifications of rear-axle gear lubricants such as:  
5.2.1 Specification D7450.  
5.2.2 American Petroleum Institute (API) Publication 1560.  
5.2.3 SAE J308.  
5.2.4 SAE J2360.
SCOPE
1.1 This test method, commonly referred to as the L-37-1 test, describes a test procedure for evaluating the load-carrying capacity, wear performance, and extreme pressure properties of a gear lubricant in a hypoid axle under conditions of low-speed, high-torque operation.3  
1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.  
1.2.1 Exceptions—Where there is no direct SI equivalent such as National Pipe threads/diameters, tubing size, or where there is a sole source supply equipment specification.
1.2.1.1 The drawing in Annex A6 is in inch-pound units.  
1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. Specific warning statements are provided in 7.2 and 10.1.  
1.4 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.

SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
4.1 The force required to separate a metallic coating from its plastic substrate is determined by the interaction of several factors: the generic type and quality of the plastic molding compound, the molding process, the process used to prepare the substrate for electroplating, and the thickness and mechanical properties of the metallic coating. By holding all others constant, the effect on the peel strength by a change in any one of the above listed factors may be noted. Routine use of the test in a production operation can detect changes in any of the above listed factors.  
4.2 The peel test values do not directly correlate to the adhesion of metallic coatings on the actual product.  
4.3 When the peel test is used to monitor the coating process, a large number of plaques should be molded at one time from a same batch of molding compound used in the production moldings to minimize the effects on the measurements of variations in the plastic and the molding process.
SCOPE
1.1 This test method gives two procedures for measuring the force required to peel a metallic coating from a plastic substrate.2 One procedure (Procedure A) utilizes a universal testing machine and yields reproducible measurements that can be used in research and development, in quality control and product acceptance, in the description of material and process characteristics, and in communications. The other procedure (Procedure B) utilizes an indicating force instrument that is less accurate and that is sensitive to operator technique. It is suitable for process control use.  
1.2 The tests are performed on standard molded plaques. This method does not cover the testing of production electroplated parts.  
1.3 The tests do not necessarily measure the adhesion of a metallic coating to a plastic substrate because in properly prepared test specimens, separation usually occurs in the plastic just beneath the coating-substrate interface rather than at the interface. It does, however, reflect the degree that the process is controlled.  
1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.  
1.5 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.

ABSTRACT
This specification covers the testing and requirements for two types and two classes of asbestos-free asphalt roof cement consisting of an asphalt base, volatile petroleum solvents, and mineral and/or other stabilizers, mixed to a smooth, uniform consistency suitable for trowel application to roofing and flashing. Type I is made from asphalts characterized as self-healing, adhesive, and ductile, while Type II is made from asphalt characterized by high softening point and relatively low ductility. Class I is used for application to essentially dry surfaces, while Class II is used for application to damp, wet, or underwater surfaces. The roof cements shall comply with composition limits for water, nonvolatile matter, mineral and/or other stabilizers, and bitumen (asphalt). They shall also meet physical requirements such as uniformity, workability, and pliability and behavior at given temperatures.
SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers asbestos-free asphalt roof cement suitable for trowel application to roofings and flashings.  
1.2 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in nonconformance with the standard.  
1.3 The following precautionary caveat pertains only to the test method portion, Section 8 of this specification: This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.  
1.4 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.

ABSTRACT
This specification covers SEBS (styrene-ethylenebutylene-styrene)-modified mopping asphalt intended for use in built-up roof construction, construction of some modified bitumen systems, construction of bituminous vapor retarder systems, and for adhering insulation boards used in various types of roofing systems. This specification is intended as a material specification and issues regarding the suitability of specific roof constructions or application techniques are beyond its scope. The specified tests and property values are intended to establish minimum properties. In place system design criteria or performance attributes are factors beyond the scope of this specification. The base asphalt shall be prepared from crude petroleum and the SEBS-modified asphalt shall incorporate sufficient SEBS as the primary polymeric modifier. The SEBS modified asphalt shall be homogeneous and free of water and shall conform to the prescribed physical properties including (1) softening point before and after heat exposure, (2) softening point change, (3) flash point, (4) penetration before and after heat exposure, (5) penetration change, (6) solubility in trichloroethylene, (7) tensile elongation, (8) elastic recovery, and (9) low temperature flexibility. The sampling and test methods to determine compliance with the specified physical properties, as well as the evaluation for stability during heat exposure are detailed.

SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
4.1 This practice is useful as a screening basis for acceptance or rejection of transparencies during manufacturing so that units with identifiable flaws will not be carried to final inspection for rejection at that time.  
4.2 This practice may also be employed as a go-no go technique for acceptance or rejection of the finished product.  
4.3 This practice is simple, inexpensive, and effective. Flaws identified by this practice, as with other optical methods, are limited to those that produce temperature gradients when electrically powered. Any other type of flaw, such as minor scratches parallel to the direction of electrical flow, are not detectable.
SCOPE
1.1 This practice covers a standard procedure for detecting flaws in the conductive coating (heater element) by the observation of polarized light patterns.  
1.2 This practice applies to coatings on surfaces of monolithic transparencies as well as to coatings imbedded in laminated structures.  
1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.  
1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use.
