BS EN 12242Touch and close fasteners. Determination of peel strength
The BS EN 12242 test method is used to determine the peel strength of a touch and close (also known as “hook and loop”) fastener through a 180° peel test that is able to determine average peel and the peel strength characteristics of the product for a given rate of displacement.
Before conducting BS EN 12242, it is important to read the entire specification. Standards can be obtained from appropriate standard authorities.
