Standard Test Methods for Measurement of Torque Retention for Packages with Continuous Thread Closures Using Non-Automated (Manual) Torque Testing Equipment

Importancia y uso:

5.1 This test method allows for the measurement of the torque retention properties of container/continuous thread closure systems of various designs, materials, manufacture, and is suitable for packaging development and engineering evaluation.

5.2 This test method can be used for the evaluation of container/continuous thread closure systems under controlled conditions (where the application torque is known and the applied downward force to the closure is zero).

5.3 This test method measures torque retention properties of container/continuous thread closure systems with the use of a non-automated, spring torque-meter (with either a dial indicator or a digital readout) or a torque wrench.
