Abstract

This Uganda standard describes a test method for the determination of the resistance to separation of the upper from the outsole or to separate adjacent layers of the outsole or to cause tear failure of the upper or the sole is measured. It also defines conditions of ageing that can be used for production control. It applies to all types of footwear (cementing, vulcanisation, injection moulding, etc.) where the evaluation of sole adhesion on the upper is needed and where the upper is continuously assembled (closed shoe). (This standard cancels and replaces US 613:2005, Footwear - Determination of strength of adhesion at the toe and at the heel of a stuck-on or moulded on sole). This standard was PUBLISHED on 2017-06-20.
