Project need:

UL proposes a correction to the test equipment specifications regarding the back jaws for the tensile tester as described in C3 (B) within Annex C, Factory Test Equipment. This proposal will take into account the historical back jaw requirements for the inflatable end product requirements for the Seam Seal Strength Test and the current jaw requirements for the Seam Seal Strength Test within ANSI/CAN/UL 1191.
