Die Norm legt ein Verfahren zur Beurteilung des Grades der Beschädigung eines Werkstoffs bei leichter Beanspruchung durch nassen Abrieb fest. Es wird speziell zur Nachahmung der abnutzenden Wirkung eines feuchten Strumpfs auf Brandsohlen von Schuhen beim Tragen angewendet. Für andere Versagensarten werden andere Prüfungen empfohlen (z. B. lässt sich die Knötchenbildung an Vliesbrandsohlen am besten mit der Martindale-Prüfung beurteilen).

Overview
prEN ISO 20868 / ISO/DIS 20868:2008 specifies a laboratory test method for assessing abrasion resistance of footwear insoles under mild wet-abrasion conditions. The standard is intended to reproduce the scuffing action of a damp hose on insoles during wear and quantifies material degradation by recording the number of revolutions to first surface damage and measuring mass (and volume) loss after a defined rubbing cycle.
Keywords: ISO 20868, insoles abrasion resistance, footwear test methods, insole durability, wet abrasion test.
Key topics and technical requirements
- Scope and purpose: Assesses degree of damage to insole materials from mild wet abrasion; not intended for other failure modes (e.g., piling - use Martindale).
- Specimens: Six specimens of identical size (commonly 60 mm diameter or 60 × 60 mm); conditioned at (23 ± 2) °C and (50 ± 2) % RH for ≥48 h.
- Apparatus:
- Rotating vertical spindle and rigid horizontal platform.
- Circular scoured pure wool felt pads (≈25 mm diameter) covered with worsted repp fabric.
- Felt pad rotated at (150 ± 5) rev/min; applied contact force (24.5 ± 0.5) N.
- Balance accurate to 0.1 mg and a thickness gauge (if density unknown).
- Procedure:
- Felt pads immersed and boiled (60 s), adjusted to a target wet mass (2.9–3.2 g).
- Specimens rub-tested sequentially; inspect for first sign of damage after doubling revolutions (2, 4, 8… up to 512), then continue to a total of 1 024 revolutions.
- Use three rubbed specimens and three control specimens to correct for moisture changes.
- Results and calculation:
- Mass loss measured before and after test to four decimal places; convert mass loss to volume loss by dividing by specimen density (calculated if necessary).
- Report number of revolutions to first damage, total mass/volume loss, and test conditions.
Applications and users
- Practical for footwear manufacturers, materials engineers, quality control labs, and test houses assessing insole durability, wear resistance, and material selection.
- Useful when comparing insole materials (foams, boards, composites) for scuff resistance under mild wet conditions typical of everyday shoe use.
- Supports product development, incoming material inspection, and compliance with footwear performance specifications.
Related standards
- EN 12747:1999 (superseded by this revision)
- EN 13520 (Martindale abrasion test for uppers, lining and insocks)
- ISO 2589 (leather thickness), ISO 2286-3 (coated fabric thickness)
For procurement or test-lab setup, reference ISO 20868 / prEN ISO 20868 when specifying insole abrasion resistance testing in technical specifications and quality documentation.

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
