| Test Type | Measurements | Required Equipment | Sample Size |
|---|---|---|---|
| FCT Surface Crush Resistance | The amount of pressure required to crush the flutes of corrugated board when pressure is applied perpendicular to its surface under standard atmospheric conditions. This test measures the elasticity of the flute layer, in other words, the impact absorption resistance. | not required | 100 cm2 50 cm2 (ISO) |
| RCT Ring Crush Resistance | The maximum compressive force that the paper can withstand without crushing when force is applied perpendicular to a cylindrical sample.RCT Holder and 13 discs | 0.5 x 6.0 in. 12.7 x 152.4 mm | |
| ECT Edge Crush Resistance | The force required to crush the flutes of corrugated board when pressure is applied parallel to the flutes under standard atmospheric conditions. | ECT Holder | 2 x 2 in. 50.8 x 50.8 mm |
| PAT Adhesion Resistance | A test conducted to measure the degree of adhesion between liner and fluting. | PAT Holder assembly (for A, B, or C flute) | 30 mm width |
| CCT Vertical Crush Resistance | The maximum force that fluting paper, which has been formed into a flute by passing through a Corrugator at 175°C, can withstand without crushing when subjected to vertical pressure. | Concora Medium Fluter CCT Holder | 0.5 x 6.0 in. |
| CMT Surface Crush Resistance | The maximum force that the flutes can withstand without crushing when force is applied perpendicular to the surface of paper that has been formed into a flute by passing through a corrugator at 175°C. | Concora Medium Fluter 0.5" Wide Belt | 0.5 x 6.0 in. |
| SCT Strip Compression Test | The maximum compression force that the test specimen or corrugated medium test specimen can support until the onset of failure. | Short Distance Compression Tester | 15 mm x 300 mm |
