ASTM D1000 Revised for Electrical Tape

ASTM D1000 has just been updated.  The publication is titled Standard Test Methods for Pressure-Sensitive Adhesive-Coated Tapes Used for Electrical and Electronic Applications.  The new 2017 Edition replaces the 2010 Edition, which is now obsolete.  Both are available from Document Center Inc.

The ASTM D1000 contains test methods used for adhesive-coated tapes used in electrical insulation.  These tapes may have backings that are either elastomeric or non-electomeric.  There are 24 different test methods in the publication.  They include flammability, accelerated aging, adhesion strength, curling and twisting, and oil resistance, just to name a few.

There are a great many revisions in this new update.  In fact, the end of the publication does not include the usual synopsis that is often included in ASTM updates.  So your best bet is going to be purchasing the redline edition of this standard.  You will then receive a clean copy of the 2017 Edition and a “marked-up” copy of the previous 2010 Edition.  The changes will be clear to you on the marked-up (redline) copy.

You may have questions on the best way to order ASTM standards.  Document Center provides them in a variety of formats.  These include paper, pdf download (single user), redline (as noted above), combo (paper and pdf set), and subscription access for your entire company (Standards Online).  For more information to help you decide what works best in your situation, get in touch with us.  We’re available via phone (650-591-7600) and email (info@document-center.com).
