Title
Standard Classification System for Rubber Products in Automotive Applications
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Jan 1, 2008
Scope:
This classification system covers the properties of vulcanized
rubber materials (natural rubber, reclaimed rubber, synthetic
rubbers, alone or in combination) that are intended for, but not
limited to, use in rubber products for automotive applications.
NOTE 1—This classification system may serve many of the needs of
other industries in much the same manner as SAE numbered steels. It
must be remembered, however, that this system is subject to
revision when required by automotive needs. It is recommended that
the latest revision always be used.
This classification system is based on the premise that the
properties of all rubber products can be arranged into
characteristic material designations. These designations are
determined by types, based on resistance to heat aging,
and classes, based on resistance to swelling in oil. Basic
levels are thus established which, together with values describing
additional requirements, permit complete description of the quality
of all elastomeric materials.
In all cases where the provisions of this classification system
would conflict with those of the detailed specifications for a
particular product, the latter shall take precedence.
NOTE 2—When the rubber product is to be used for purposes where
the requirements are too specific to be completely prescribed by
this classification system, it is necessary for the purchaser to
consult the supplier in advance, to establish the appropriate
properties, test methods, and specification test limits.
The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as
standard.
