本试验方法的目的是规定一种测量纸张在不断增加的液压下破裂强度的方法。适用于爆破强度在70 kPa至1400 kPa范围内的纸张。其不适用于组合板的组件（如槽介质或衬板），其使用as 1301.438中给出的方法。

The objective of this Test Method is to specify a method for measuring the bursting strength of paper submitted to increasing hydraulic pressure. It is applicable to paper having bursting strengths within the range 70 kPa to 1 400 kPa. It is not intended to be used for the components (such as fluting medium or linerboard) of a combined board, for which the method given in AS 1301.438 is to be used.
