ISO 252:2023 — Conveyor Belts: Adhesion Between Constitutive Elements

← Back to all standards

ISO 252 is the test method for the adhesion strength between the layers of a conveyor belt, such as ply-to-ply and cover-to-carcass bonds. To match this to your program, talk with our team.

What ISO 252 Covers

It measures the peel adhesion between belt layers, a key indicator of conveyor-belt build quality and durability.

How the Test Is Run

A belt specimen is separated between layers at a controlled rate in a tensile machine, and the average peel force per unit width gives the adhesion strength.

Why It Matters

Inter-layer adhesion governs conveyor-belt life and splice integrity; grips and a peel fixture suited to belt samples are essential.
