ASTM-D7267 › Standard Test Method for Edge Ravel Resistance of Finished Loop Pile, Pile Yarn Floor Covering
The following bibliographic material is provided to assist you with your purchasing decision:
Scope
1.1 This test method covers the determination of the force required to ravel a yarn from the edge of a loop pile, tufted, carpet.
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.
Significance and Use
The satisfactory performance of a loop pile floor covering depends, to a considerable extent, on the installation and maintenance of the product. A loop pile floor covering with inadequate edge ravel strength may result in loops pulling out from the backing, resulting in an aesthetically displeasing appearance. Tuft rows located at the seam of a loop pile floor covering are the most susceptible to raveling.
