Flexibility Test using a 20 mm mandrel. For products which show signs of cracking, perform a further test using a 40 mm mandrel. If results show no further cracking, record the use of a 40 mm diameter mandrel. Cracking when using a 40 mm mandrel is to be recorded. The test shall be repeated with method B.

EN 14565:2004 (E) 8 4.2 Calculation of recovery after indention The recovery after indentation is calculated from the following expression: 100recovery01×=tt where t0 is the thickness of the floor covering before applying the load; t1 is the thickness after recovery for 150 minutes. 5 Wear and performance specification The manufacturers shall provide a statement regarding the wear performance of the floor coverings, conforming to the classification scheme established in EN 685 and based on their knowledge of the formulation, physical test results, and extended wear trials carried out on floor coverings. NOTE It is well established that there is little or no correlation, if test results from an abrasion test are used to assess how different polymer based floor coverings wear in service. This is particularly true if the floor coverings under test are significantly different in formulation, and product construction. Only floor coverings of similar composition can be compared for wear and durability using abrasion test equipment. Since floor coverings covered by this specification can vary significantly in formulation, and can be based upon many different polymers, for floor coverings covered by this standard it is not possible to use the results from laboratory
