  • ASTM D5 Standard Test Method for Penetration of Bituminous Materials ASTM D5 Standard Test Method for Penetration of Bituminous Materials9. Procedure9.1 Examine the needle holder and guide to establish the absence of water and other extraneous materials. If the penetration is expected to exceed 350 use a long needle, otherwise use a short needle. Clean a penetration needle ...
  • ASTM D5 Standard Test Method for Penetration of Bituminous Materials ASTM D5 Standard Test Method for Penetration of Bituminous Materials7. Preparation of Test Specimen7.1 If the sample is not sufficiently fluid as received, heat the sample with care, stirring when possible to prevent local overheating, until it has become sufficiently fluid to pour. In no case should ...
