Introduction
"This Japanese Industrial Standard has been prepared based on the first edition of
180 8142 published in 1990 by modifying some ofthe technieal contents to reflect the
actual business situations in Japan. This Standard specifies wool, board insulation,
felt, wave insulation, lamella products and blankets that are not specified in the cor”
responding International Standard as man-made mineral fibre thermal insulation
materiale,
‘The portions with continuous sidelines or dotted underlines are the matters in which
the contents of the corresponding International Standard have been modified. A list
‘of modifications with explanations is given in Annex JC. Annex JA and Annex JB
contain matters that are not included in the corresponding International Standard
A comparison table between previous and current edition¢ ofthis Standard on tech:
nically significant revisions is given in Annex JB.

sufficiently such that it undulates in horizontal direction, and after 4h has elapsed,
perform the measurement. In the case of along test specimen which is difficult
to wave without it touching the floor, the specimen may be eut to an appropriate
Tength of 450 mm or longer before this waving procedure
©) For both compression-packaged and uncompressed-packaged product test speci-
‘mens, measure the thickness at a position where the centre of the load plate is
100 mm or more inside from the ond ofthe tast specimen, at three points distrib-
uted almost equally 20 a8 to represent the whole test specimen, as shown in fg-
ture 2. For products having facing, open a hole for measurement in the facing
material atthe measuring position beforehand.
Insert the needle into the load plate of the exclusive instrament specified in 6.1.2 b)
until it eaches the rigid fat plate in a), and while keeping the needle tip protruding
from the load plate by more than the thickness of the teat specimen, adjust the
needle tip at the measuring position specified in e) and insert the needle perpen=
diculary to the test specimen. For the test specimen having facing, insert the
nocdle perpendicularly through the hole of facing opened in e). While holding the
noodle inserted in the test specimen, plac the load plate gently, along the needle,
onto the test specimen,

detach the load plate from the test specimen while holding the needle tip project:
ing from the load plate with fingers. Tn the ease of rock wool thermal insulation
