Title
Standard Test Method for Measuring Abrasion Using the Dry Sand/Rubber Wheel Apparatus
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Nov 1, 2004
Scope:
This test method covers laboratory procedures for determining the
resistance of metallic materials
to scratching abrasion by means of the dry sand/rubber wheel test. It
is the intent of this test
method to produce data that will reproducibly rank materials in their
resistance to scratching
abrasion under a specified set of conditions.
Abrasion test results are reported as volume loss in cubic millimetres
for the particular test
procedure specified. Materials of higher abrasion resistance will have
a lower volume loss.
NOTE 1 - In order to attain uniformity among laboratories, it is the
intent of this test method to
require that volume loss due to abrasion be reported only in the
metric system as cubic
millimetres. 1 mm³ = 6.102 × 10−5 in³.
This test method covers five recommended procedures which are
appropriate for specific degrees of
wear resistance or thicknesses of the test material.
Procedure A - This is a relatively severe test which will rank
metallic materials on a wide volume
loss scale from low to extreme abrasion resistance. It is particularly
useful in ranking materials
of medium to extreme abrasion resistance.
Procedure B - A short-term variation of Procedure A. It may be used
for highly abrasive resistant
materials but is particularly useful in the ranking of medium- and
low-abrasive-resistant
materials. Procedure B should be used when the volume - loss values
developed by Procedure A
exceeds 100 mm³.
Procedure C - A short-term variation of Procedure A for use on thin
coatings.
Procedure D - This is a lighter load variation of Procedure A which is
particularly useful in
ranking materials of low-abrasion resistance. It is also used in
ranking materials of a specific
generic type or materials which would be very close in the volume loss
rates as developed by
Procedure A.
Procedure E - A short-term variation of Procedure B that is useful in
the ranking of materials with
medium- or low-abrasion resistance.
This standard does not purport to address the safety concerns, if any,
associated with its use. It
is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish
appropriate safety and health
practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations
prior to use.
