SAE J200 Document Information:
Title
(R) Classification System for Rubber Materials
SAE International
Publication Date:
May 1, 2008
Scope:
This classification system tabulates 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: The SAE Committee on Automotive Rubber Specifications
(CARS) has the sole responsibility for SAE J200. CARS Works closely
with and receives input from ASTM Subcommittee D11.30 on
Classification of Rubber Compounds with the goal to keep SAE J200
and ASTM D 2000 technically equivalent. Candidate materials
presented for development of new tables or for inclusion in Tables
A1 or A2 of SAE J200 or Table X1.1 of ASTM D 2000 shall be
initiated with the SAE CARS Committee. The procedure to be followed
is detailed in Appendix C of SAE J200.
NOTE 2: This document 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 document is based on the
premise that all rubber materials intended for use in rubber
products can be arranged into characteristic designations. These
designations are determined by types, based on resistance to heat
aging, and classes, based on resistance to swelling by oil. Basic
levels are thus established which, together with values describing
additional requirements, permit complete description of the quality
of all rubber materials. In all cases where provisions of this
document would conflict with those of the detailed specifications
for a particular product, the latter shall take precedence.
NOTE 3: 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.
Purpose
The purpose of this document is to provide guidance to the
engineer in the selection of practical, commercially available
rubber materials, and further to provide a method for specifying
these materials by the use of a simple line call-out
designation.
This document was developed to permit the addition of
descriptive values for future rubber materials without complete
reorganization of the classification system and to facilitate the
incorporation of future new methods of test to keep pace with
changing industry requirements.
