DIN 53862 is a legacy German method for the tear resistance of woven textile fabrics. Current work references the ISO fabric tear methods. To match this to your program, talk with our team.
What DIN 53862 Covers
It measured the tear resistance of woven fabrics, an approach now carried by the current ISO 13937 series.
How the Test Is Run
A notched or trouser specimen is torn by the specified method, and the tear force is recorded.
Why It Matters
For new work, use EN ISO 13937-1 or ISO 13937-2, which cover current fabric tear testing.
