ASTM D1002: Lap Shear Testing of Adhesively Bonded Metals
ASTM D1002 describes the procedure for evaluating the shear strength of adhesives used for bonding metals. These adhesives are commonly used in the automotive, aerospace, and electronics industries to bond various joints and subcomponents. Adhesive testing is critical for understanding the relative strength of different materials, as well as identifying the effects of environmental conditions and aging on the strength and durability of a bond.
