shall be comparable to a reference sample of polychloroprene. ·The test shall
be carried out on the core of the eiastomeric bearings i.e on the materiai to be
obtained by removing the three layers.

4.2.6 The periodical test for ozone resistance of the elastomer shall be got done by
the supplier in accordance with clause 915.2.3 of the code IRC83 (part-II). A
