ASTM C 509 Document Information:
Title
Standard Specification for Elastomeric Cellular Preformed Gasket and Sealing Material
ASTM International
Publication Date:
May 1, 2006
Scope:
This specification applies to those elastomeric cellular materials of a firm grade that are manufactured in preformed shapes for use as gaskets and for use as sealing materials, in the form of compression seals or gaskets, or both, for glazing other building joint applications.
NOTE 1—For softer cellular elastomeric materials used in secondary sealing applications, refer to Specification D 1056.
Test Method C 1166, as referenced in this specification, should be used to measure and describe the properties of materials, products, or assemblies in response to heat and flame under controlled laboratory conditions and should not be used to describe or appraise the fire hazard or fire risk of materials, products, or assemblies under actual fire conditions. However, results of this test may be used as elements of a fire risk assessment which takes into account all of the factors which are pertinent to an assessment of the fire hazard of a particular end use.
The following precautionary caveat pertains only to the test method portion, Section 11, of this specification: This standard does not purport to address all of 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.
The committee with jurisdiction over this standard is not aware of any comparable standards published by other organizations.
