2、 oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the U.S.Department
3、of Defense.1NOTEIn 10.4.2,reference to 9.9 was corrected to 10.4.1 editorially in November 2017.1.Scope1.1 This test method covers the measurement of the tearingstrength of textile fabrics by the tongue(single rip)procedureusing a recording constant-rate-of-extension-type(CRE)ten-sile testing machin
4、e.1.1.1 The CRE-type tensile testing machine has become thepreferred test apparatus for determining tongue tearingstrength.It is recognized that some constant-rate-of-traverse-type(CRT)tensile testing machines continue to be used.As aconsequence,these test instruments may be used when agreedupon bet
5、ween the purchaser and the supplier.The conditionsfor use of the CRT-type tensile tester are included in AppendixX1.1.2 This test method applies to most fabrics includingwoven fabrics,air bag fabrics,blankets,napped fabrics,knitfabrics,layered fabrics,pile fabrics and non-wovens.Thefabrics may be un
6、treated,heavily sized,coated,resin-treated,or otherwise treated.Instructions are provided for testingspecimens with or without wetting.1.3 Tear strength,as measured in this test method,requiresthat the tear be initiated before testing.The reported valueobtained is not directly related to the force r
7、equired to initiateor start a tear.1.4 Two calculations for tongue tearing strength are pro-vided:the single-peak force and the average of five highestpeak forces.1.5 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded as the standard.The inch-pound units maybe approximate.1.6
