Historical Standard: ASTM D4476-97 Standard Test Method for Flexural Properties of Fiber Reinforced Pultruded Plastic Rods
SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
ASTM D4476
1. Scope
1.1 This test method covers the determination of the flexural properties of fiber-reinforced pultruded plastic rods. The specimen is a rod with a semi-circular cross section, molded or cut from lengths of pultruded rods (see Fig. 1). This test method is designed for rods with a diameter of 1/2 in. or greater.
1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard.
1.3 This standard may involve hazardous materials, operations, and equipment. This standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems associated with its use. It is the responsibility of whoever uses this standard to consult and establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
