Can anybody provide any details on the above standard which relates to methods of burst testing rubber and plastic hoses? Is this the US equivalent to EN ISO 1402:1996?

We have a problem with hoses supplied by an overseas manufacturer and they are having their production independently tested in China to the above standard but we need to have some information on the relationship between ASTM and EN ISO.

Many thanks

Hello Peter,

I found this (http://www.astm.org/cgi-bin/SoftCart.exe/DATABASE.CART/REDLINE_PAGES/D380.htm?E+mystore).

This (http://www.jgbhose.com/Data_Returns/testmethods.asp) could help...

And from (http://www.iso.org/iso/iso_catalogue/catalogue_tc/catalogue_tc_browse.htm?commid=48692&development=true) the ISO.org website.

These sites may not give you all the answers, but it is at least a start.

What standard are you specifying? If you specify testing in accordance to the ASTM standard, then it's the supplier's responsibility--before accepting the contract--to propose an alternative, and to justify it.
