TAPPI T816

Coefficient of Static Friction of Corrugated and Solid Fiberboard (Horizontal Plane Method)

TAPPI T816 Test Materials

TAPPI T816 specifies corrugated and solid fiberboard as the test materials. These materials are often used in packaging applications, making it crucial to evaluate their surface interaction properties during stacking or transportation​.

TAPPI T816 Test Process

The procedure involves placing a test specimen on a flat horizontal plane, then gradually increasing the angle of inclination or the applied force until the material begins to slide. This evaluates the static coefficient of friction between the sample and a standard surface, providing critical data for designing packaging systems​.
