ASTM D3702-94 Thrus Iugoug
This test method involves a rotating test specimen pressed against a stationary steel washer under a
prescribed set of conditions. The test specimen is disk shaped with a raised outer rim, which is the wear
surface. The inside diameter of the rim is 25.5 mm, the outer diameter is 28.55 mm. Each test has a break-in
period of 40 hours, followed by a selected test duration at the same load and speed (see table below). Wear rate
and coefficient of friction are calculated based on periodic thickness measurements of the test specimen and
in-situ torque measurements.
The UMT applies a programmable load downward by a servo driven carriage. The test can be performed
with either Configuration A: the upper test specimen is rotated against a stationary washer as described in the
standard, or Configuration B: the upper test specimen is stationary and the washer is rotated. The actual
dynamic normal load, friction torque and coefficient, and depth of wear are monitored during the test.
Optionally, additional parameters of contact acoustic emission and temperature are measured
