6、rd O-ring specimens are tested in a test fixturethat has a closely controlled extrusion gap.3.2 Temperature is applied to the test fixture,with testspecimens,and then pressure is applied.3.3 The test fluid is distilled water.3.4 Test pressure and temperature are maintained untilspecimen seal leaks o
7、r until the end of prescribed duration.3.5 More than one specimen may be tested at one time in thefixture.4.Significance and Use4.1 Static seal failures are predominately due to incompat-ibility with media,degradation by temperature extremes,andextrusion stress.This test method may be used for relat
8、iveperformance evaluation screening,and is normally the secondstage of the screening process after immersion testing inaccordance with Test Method E1068.4.2 This test method shows relative performance of materi-als under the combined effects of temperature,pressure,andextrusion stress.It does not ne
