VI. ASTM F2824 Standard

ASTM F2824 Standard Test Method for Mechanical Seal Strength Testing for Round Cups and Bowl Containers with Flexible Peelable Lids

  1. Purpose and Scope of ASTM F2824: The standard aims to provide a consistent method for measuring the mechanical seal strength of round cups and bowl containers with flexible peelable lids, ensuring reliability and reproducibility of results across different testing scenarios.
  2. Detailed Description of Test Methods and Procedures
    1. Before starting the test, confirm the calibration of the force-measuring device.
    2. Identify the peel line of the sample container and secure the container in the test equipment fixture, ensuring the starting peel point and peel line are aligned so the peel direction follows the peel line.
    3. Attach the lid’s peeling tab to the grip of the force-measuring device.
    4. Set the peel rate to 12 ± 0.5 in./min (300 ± 12.7 mm/min) and initiate the test.
    5. After the test cycle is complete, record the measured results, remove the sample, and repeat the procedure for additional samples.
  3. Importance of Compliance with ASTM F2824: Compliance ensures that testing methods meet industry standards, enhancing credibility and reliability. It helps in maintaining product quality and meeting regulatory requirements.
