Full Description

This method determines the tearing strength of woven and nonwoven fabrics by the trapezoid procedure.

Two procedures for the calculation of tearing strength are given, one for woven fabrics and the other for nonwovens. The two procedures will not usually give the same result.

The testing and evaluation of a product against this method may require the use of materials and/or equipment that could be hazardous. This document does not purport to address all the safety aspects associated with its use. Anyone using this method has the responsibility to consult the appropriate authorities and to establish appropriate health and safety practices in conjunction with any existing applicable regulatory requirements prior to its use.
