DIN ISO 815-1 — Compression Set Testing for Vulcanized & Thermoplastic Rubber
DIN ISO 815-1 is the German adoption of ISO 815-1, the compression set method for vulcanized and thermoplastic rubber at ambient and elevated temperatures. To match this to your program, talk with our team.
What DIN ISO 815-1 Covers
It measures the permanent deformation remaining after prolonged compression of a rubber specimen, matching the ISO method under the German designation.
How the Test Is Run
A specimen is compressed in a jig, held at temperature, released, and the residual set is measured after recovery.
Why It Matters
Compression set characterizes seal durability; the DIN ISO designation is what German quality systems cite.
Reading the Designation
Cited as DIN ISO 815-1 with its edition year. Confirm the edition and specimen requirements before finalizing setup. To configure a rubber testing setup, request a quote.
