ASTM F3270/F3270M – Standard Practice for Compression versus Load Properties of Gasket Materials

1.1 This practice measures the compression properties of a gasket material by measuring gasket deflection while it is subjected to an increasing compressive load until a target load is reached. The load and change in thickness are recorded at a defined loading rate as a function of time for the duration of the test.
