ISO 4662 is the test method for the rebound resilience (impact energy return) of vulcanized or thermoplastic rubber. To match this to your program, talk with our team.
What ISO 4662 Covers
It measures how much energy a rubber returns after impact, an indicator of elasticity and damping used for tyres, mounts, and dynamic components.
How the Test Is Run
A pendulum or falling indenter strikes a rubber specimen, and the rebound height relative to the drop gives the resilience as a percentage of returned energy.
Why It Matters
Resilience characterizes the elastic and damping behaviour of rubber; a calibrated rebound apparatus and controlled conditioning are used.
