BS EN ISO 4674-2:2021

This standard BS EN ISO 4674-2:2021 Rubber- or plastics-coated fabrics. Determination of tear resistance is classified in these ICS categories:

• 59.080.40 Coated fabrics

This document specifies a method for the determination of tear resistance based on the action of an active force applied to a notched test piece.

The test can be carried out on:

• test pieces that have been conditioned in a standard atmosphere; or

• test pieces that have undergone pre-treatment, e.g. water immersion.

The results obtained by this method cannot be compared with those obtained by methods involving constant rate of tear.
