ASTM D3787 determines the measurement for bursting strength with a ball burst strength tester of textiles or garments that exhibit a high degree of ultimate elongation. ASTM D3787 is used to determine the force required to rupture textile fabric by forcing a steel ball through the fabric with a constant-rate-of-traverse tensile tester.
By means of our testing expertise and modular product design, we will help find the testing solution that is right for you. Give one of our application engineers a call today for help with creating the best budget and testing plan according to ASTM D3787.
