Foreword

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards

bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out

through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical

committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International

organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO

collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electro

technical standardization.

The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are

described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the

different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the

editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/directives).

Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of

patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of

any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or

on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www .iso .org/patents).

Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not

constitute an endorsement.

For an explanation on the voluntary nature of standards, the meaning of ISO specific terms and

expressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO's adherence to the

World Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) see the following

URL: www .iso .org/iso/foreword .html.
This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 219, Floor coverings.

This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO 10361:2012), which has been technically

revised.
The main changes compared to the previous edition are as follows:

— The main changes in this document were made regarding the material of the studs. In this standard

we propose to replace the current used materials rubber or PU into stainless steel to avoid problems

with consistency of the raw materials and abrasion of studs during the test.

Introduction

This International Standard describes two instruments used for fatiguing textile floor covering

specimens and producing changes in appearance in a laboratory simulation of wear.

This International Standard was originally published as a type 2 Technical Report. ISO/TC 219 decided

to revise the document for publication as an International Standard.

DRAFT INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO/DIS 10361:2018(E)
Textile floor coverings — Production of changes in
appearance by means of Vettermann drum and hexapod
tumbler tester
1 Scope

This International Standard describes procedures that use the mechanical action of a Vettermann

drum or a hexapod tumbler tester to produce changes in appearance (surface structure and colour) to

all types of textile floor coverings. It does not include pilling or colour changes due to other actions.

Changes produced by these drum testers are assessed in accordance with the applicable assessment

standard.
2 Normative references

The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are

indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated

references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

ISO 139, Textiles — Standard atmospheres for conditioning and testing

ISO 1957, Machine-made textile floor coverings — Selection and cutting of specimens for physical tests

ISO 2424, Textile floor coverings — Vocabulary
ISO 9405, Textile floor coverings — Assessment of changes in appearance
3 Terms and definitions

For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in ISO 2424 apply.

4 Principle

A steel ball or a hexapod with studs rolls randomly inside a rotating drum which is lined with the textile

floor covering specimens.

After fatiguing, the change in appearance of the specimens is assessed in accordance with the applicable

assessment standard.
5 Method A — Vettermann drum method
5.1 Apparatus
5.1.1 Vettermann drum tester
with a metal drum of the following dimensions (see Figure 2):
— internal diameter: (730 ± 10) mm;
— internal depth: (270 ± 5) mm;
— effective depth: (240 ± 7) mm;

ISO/DIS 10361:2018(E)
— thickness of curved surface: (8 ± 0,5) mm.

The drum shall be capable of rotating at a speed of (16 ± 1) r/min and shall have facilities for reversing

the direction of rotation every 300 ± 30 seconds with 2 ± 1 s stationary time stationary time. The drum

system shall incorporate a revolution counter, and specimens shall be held in place by four adjustable

retaining segments [thickness (15 ± 1) mm] on each side wall of the drum.

Loose pile fibres shall be extracted by a vacuum cleaner. Figure 2 illustrates the drum in cross-section.

A vulcanized fibre backing sheet of size 2 320 mm × 270 mm × 1,5 mm thick and of density 1,1 g/

3 3

cm to 1,3 g/cm at 20 °C is loosely laid inside the drum shell on the working side. The sheet remains

permanently in the drum.
