In the span of the test center put 50mm wide belt or ribbon, a vertical force exerted on the belt F. At a rate of (200 ± 5) N/s is applied gradually. Respectively, in a load of 1/3Fd, 2/3Fd and Fd measured after maintaining its flexible 30s Then, gradually decrease the power and remove the force after 1min, measuring residual deflection, which should not exceed the value of the measured applied force Fd scratch Of 6%. Over 15%. Found by the deflection force Fd generated, and previous test results should be compared. Under the same conditions as above, urging gradually increased Fr, then maintaining the value 30s, there should be no damage to the phenomenon. Continue urging, has been Damage to the test date, and record the actual destruction of the test load value. 5.8 torque test This test is carried out on a second set of insulating tube (rod) taken 3 test. Each length of 1.2m. 1m length of the torque applied to the test sample (or between the chuck end) on.
