BS 5350-C13:1990

This standard BS 5350-C13:1990 Methods of test for adhesives. Adhesively bonded joints: mechanical tests is classified in these ICS categories:

• 83.180 Adhesives

This Part of BS 5350 describes a climbing drum peel test for the determination, under specified conditions, of the resistance of joints to perpendicular peel stresses on the adhesive layer. It is applicable to the testing of joints between an outer metal sheet and the core of sandwich assemblies, e.g. honeycomb or other composites.

This test is intended for ranking and quality control of adhesives and not for obtaining data for design purposes.

A test for measuring the perpendicular resistance of adhesive joints between metal sheets and sandwich assemblies.
