ASTM D1054 Rubber Resilience (Goodyear-Healey Rebound Pendulum)

← Back to all standards

ASTM D1054 is the rubber resilience test method using a Goodyear-Healey rebound pendulum to determine impact resilience. To match this to your program, talk with our team.

What ASTM D1054 Covers

It measures the impact resilience of rubber with a specific rebound pendulum, giving a percentage of energy returned that reflects elasticity and damping.

How the Test Is Run

The pendulum strikes the rubber specimen and its rebound is measured against the drop, and the resilience is calculated as the returned energy fraction.

Why It Matters

Resilience ranks rubber elasticity for dynamic applications; a calibrated rebound pendulum and controlled conditioning are used.
