ASTM F1015-03 (R2017) PDF Download

An accepted test procedure used to assess the relative abrasiveness of synthetic turf playing surfaces is ASTM F1015-03 (R2017). The test examines how abrasive fabric- or carpet-type synthetic playing surfaces are, and the results give a sense of how abrasive they are relative to one another.

This standard can be used to measure synthetic grass fields used for sports both in the lab and on the ground. It offers a uniform, standardized way for determining how abrasive certain surfaces are, making it possible to compare the results across various surfaces.

This standard aids in identifying the relative abrasiveness of synthetic turf playing grounds, which helps to determine the likelihood of injuries or equipment damage to sportsmen. It makes it possible for sports field managers, producers, and sporting organizations to decide with knowledge whether synthetic turf fields are appropriate for various sports.
