ASTM D2063

ASTM D2063 and Its Scope ASTM D2063/D2063M is a quantitative test standard designed to measure the removal torque of continuous thread closures applied to containers with matching finishes. The method focuses on manual (non-automated) torque testing equipment, such as spring torque meters, torque wrenches, or digital manual torque testers. The standard emphasizes torque retention, not just initial application torque. After a cap is applied at a known torque, the package is stored under controlled environmental conditions. Removal torque is then measured at defined intervals to evaluate how the closure system behaves over time. This approach makes ASTM D2063 highly relevant for: Torque Test Standard and Manual Torque Test for Bottle […]
