1.1 This standard describes three test methods for determining the modulus of elasticity in bending and the bending strength of metallic strips or sheets intended for the use in flat springs:

1.1.1 Test Method Aa cantilever beam,

1.1.2 Test Method Ba three-point loaded beam (that is, a beam resting on two supports and centrally loaded), and

1.1.3 Test Method Ca four-point loaded beam (that is, a beam resting on two supports and loaded at two points equally spaced from each support).

1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard.

1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

6.1 This test method covers the determination of the modulus of elasticity in bending and the offset yield strength in bending of flat metallic strips or sheets for spring applications. The test procedure involves measurements of the applied moment and the corresponding angle of deflection of a cantilever beam. The thickness range covered is 0.015 to 0.130 in. (0.38 to 3.30 mm). This test method is not applicable for nonlinear elastic materials.

15.1 These test methods cover the determination of the modulus of elasticity in bending and the bending proof strength of flat metallic strips or sheets for spring applications. The test methods consist of deflection tests of a simple beam configuration subjected to either three- or four-point symmetrical loading. The thickness range covered is 0.010 to 0.050 in. (0.25 to 1.3 mm).

Note 3—Thickness ranges outside of those specified may be agreed upon between suppliers and users.
