Method
Configuration Webbing Thickness
Measured following the ISA 41 dimensions procedure (§7): a test sample at least 2500 mm long is loaded, without shock, with a 10 kg (±0.1 kg) mass and the load is retained for at least 60 seconds before measuring.
With the load still applied, the thickness is measured in mm to a precision of 0.1 mm.
