ASTM D6775, Standard Test Method for Breaking Strength and Elongation of Textile Webbing, Tape and Braided Material, is the test method for the procedure described below.
ASTM D6775 Standard Test Method for Breaking Strength and Elongation of Textile Webbing, Tape and Braided Material
At a Glance
Document type: Test Method.
Edition: active, edition D6775-13(2024).
Values reported: elongation of textile webbing, tape, braided materials using a split-drum type specimen clamp.
Scope
Determination of the breaking strength and elongation of textile webbing, tape and braided materials using a split-drum type specimen clamp.
Limited to materials with a maximum width of 90 mm (3.5 in.) and a maximum breaking strength of no more than 89 000 N (20 000 lb).
What the Result Tells You
A test to ASTM D6775 returns elongation of textile webbing, tape and braided materials using a split-drum type specimen clamp. Each value is reported against the specimen geometry and the conditions the method fixes, which is what makes results from two laboratories directly comparable.
Because the numbers depend on those fixed conditions, a result is only meaningful when the report names the standard, the edition and any options the method allows.

Reading the Designation
ASTM D6775: the designation as published by the issuing body.
Year suffix: the revision is identified by its year, as in ASTM D6775-24. A specification that names an edition fixes that edition; a later revision does not apply to an order retroactively.
When a drawing, purchase order or quality procedure cites this document, the test setup, the specimen and the report follow that citation.
