Причина отмены This test method covered the measurement of rotational torques of Type IIIA child-resistant closures as a means of monitoring normal functioning of the child-resistant package.

Formerly under the jurisdiction of Committee D10 on Packaging, this test method was withdrawn in January 2016 in accordance with section 10.6.3 of the Regulations Governing ASTM Technical Committees, which requires that standards shall be updated by the end of the eighth year since the last approval date.

Значение и использование

The application of this test method provides a means for evaluating one of the variables affecting the ability of the closure-container system to function as specified.

Variability in rotational torque measurements is probably due to the use of the torque meter to measure relatively small torque values, differences in critical package dimensions, and the aging of components.
