Rubber- or plastics-coated fabrics; Determination of roll characteristics

This technical specification outlines a standardized methodology for determining key parameters of coated fabrics available in roll form. The material under examination consists of a substrate treated with either rubber or plastic compounds, which are widely utilized in various industrial and commercial applications. The procedure described focuses on precise measurement techniques to evaluate the physical dimensions and structural properties of the unprocessed material as it is supplied. By establishing uniform protocols for assessment, this document facilitates consistent quality control procedures across different manufacturing facilities and testing laboratories. The approach ensures that critical attributes such as width, thickness, and surface characteristics are measured with a high degree of accuracy and repeatability. Adherence to these defined steps allows for reliable comparison of product specifications regardless of the origin of the material or the location of the testing facility. This framework supports international trade by providing a common reference point for evaluating coated textile products, thereby promoting compatibility and reducing ambiguity in technical specifications.
