This International Standard describes two methods for the determination of the tensile strength of fabrics coated with rubber or plastics: the strip test and the grab test. The methods apply to test pieces in equilibrium with standard atmospheres for testing, and to wet test pieces. Both methods require the use of a constant rate of extension (CRE) tensile testing machine.
