1.1 This test method covers the determination of the abrasion resistance of soft vulcanized rubber compounds and similar materials to a reference standard system. A reference or standard set of compounds is used to calculate relative abrasion resistance.

1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.

1.3 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.
