Abstract: An interlaboratory study conducted by the ASTM F06.33 Task Group on Abrasion and Wear has shown that a correlation exists between the Frick-Taber Method for measuring abrasion resistance and in situ wear. This is a verification of results obtained on European flooring reported by Otto F. V. Frick, National Institute for Material, Stockholm, Sweden. Dr. Frick developed the original grit feeding device which is now manufactured in the United States in a modified form. ASTM Subcommittee F06.30 on Resilient Flooring directed that this work be done to show that a correlation exists using the commercially available abrasion equipment on flooring manufactured in the United States.

Comparative wear testing of flooring materials
TL;DR: In this paper, the wear behavior of flooring materials such as rubber, PVC (polyvinyl chloride) and cork was studied using three normalized test methods: Taber, Frick-Taber and abrasive cylinder (DIN 53516, Deutsches Institut fur Normung).

TL;DR: Test methods for friction and abrasion of elastomers are described in this paper together with wear mechanisms, the role of standard rubbers and the variety of configurations for ABRasion test apparatus.

Friction and wear
R. P. Brown
- 01 Jan 1996
TL;DR: In the rubber industry, the two topics are more often thought of separately as discussed by the authors, and this situation is not unreasonable; far more than simply friction is involved in rubber wear processes and wear is directly a problem in more applications of rubber than is friction.

Studies of wear on flooring materials
TL;DR: In this article, a method of assessment of data from abrasive wear testing machines is derived which enables correlation between laboratory tests and practice to be obtained, using this method the effect of various factors including type, quantity and particle size of abrasive and the surface material of the abrading device and pressure used.

Performance of abrasion machines for flooring materials
TL;DR: In this paper, the results of abrasion tests of flooring materials on different machines are mostly at variance and an international group has examined these discrepancies more systematically, and concluded that many machines may give useful results for one type of floor, but it is exceptional for a machine to be capable of comparing a range of different types or judging new materials.

Development of a Method to Measure Wear on Resilient Flooring
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a loose-grit feeding device as an attachment on the Taber abraser to measure wear on resilient flooring and found that the coefficient of variation of volume loss between six cooperating laboratories using five different resilient floorings were found to be no greater than 20%. Within any one laboratory, the coefficients of variation were approximately 10% or less.
