Significance and Use
2.1 This test method is designed to measure the load required to tear a leather strap fastened in a buckle. Tanners and leather buyers have found that this test gives an indication of the resistance of leather to tearing.
2.2 This test method should be suitable for specification acceptance, design purposes, manufacturing control, development, and research. The thickness of the specimen and direction of tear relative to the backbone will affect the uniformity of the test results. This test method may not apply when the conditions of the test employed differ widely from those specified in this test method.
