ASTM F1306 - Plastic Puncture Test on a Universal Testing Machine

ASTM F1306 is the standard plastic film testing method used to evaluate the slow rate penetration resistance of flexible barrier films—commonly found in food, medical, and pharmaceutical packaging.

In this quick demonstration on a Galdabini Universal Testing Machine, we showcase the ASTM F1306 puncture fixture. It attaches to any universal testing machine using a clevis pin connection. The plastic film sample is clamped into place by tightening the fixture, ensuring a secure hold during testing. Both the puncture opening and probe radius are designed to meet ASTM specifications, providing accurate and repeatable results.
