Strength and Durability Testing for Automotive Hydraulic Brake Components
J2995
This recommended practice will specify a standard duty cycle and set of conditions for component-level durability testing. The "duty cycle" refers to a set of loading conditions (e.g. torque or pressure and cycling count), and the 'test conditions" refers to environmental conditions such as temperature, humidity, and part conditioning from prior exposure (e.g. heat aging).
Rationale: The intended revision will provide clarification and correct some errors in parts of the current document. It will substantially revise how light metals are handled, as the currently published method is not clear and virtually impossible to run. The revision will also seek to provide a clear example of application to better illustrate how the methodology is intended to work.
