Sealed Seams The seam tape shall be launderable and shall prevent water leakage through seams and stitching. Seam tape shall be applied only to the inside of the end item.
Tape shall be cut 7/8-inch to 1-inch wide strips from material that is compatible with the back side of cloth specified in Table I. The shade of the tape shall approximate the back of the basic cloth.
ASTM International ASTM D751 Standard Test Method for Coated Fabrics
Tests shall be run on the finished trousers at five
(5) different seam locations as follows: one (1) on each top seam of knee patch, one (1) on each leg seam, and one (1) on seat seam. The five (5) determinations shall be reported separately as "pass" or "fail". More than one (1) area of the five
(5) test areas on each trouser showing leakage shall constitute a failure.
Sealed Seams Hydrostatic Resistance After Laundering
No Leakage ASTM International ASTM D751 Standard Test Method for Coated Fabrics
From production lots when specified, units shall be randomly selected for five (5) launderings in accordance with the laundering procedure below.
The units shall be visually examined and then tested for hydrostatic resistance as specified in ASTM D751, Procedure B, Procedure 2, after the fifth laundering cycle.
Sealed Seams Hydrostatic Resistance No Leakage ASTM International ASTM D751 Standard Test Method for Coated Fabrics
ASTM D751, Procedure B, Procedure 2 shall be utilized to determine if the seams are resistant to leakage at a fixed hydrostatic head pressure of 50 centimeters for three (3) minutes. The hydrostatic pressure shall be applied to the outside or face of the garment. Leakage is defined as the appearance of water at three (3) or more different places or the continuous flow of water through the material or seams at one (1) or more different places within the 4-1/2-inch diameter test area.
Sealed Seams End Item Laundering for sealed seam test
Prior to laundering, one (1) trouser shall be retained for use as the unlaundered sample in evaluating the trousers after laundering. Place two
(2) end items, (one (1) end item may be ballast) (approximately 4 pounds total load), in an automatic washing machine set on permanent press cycle, high water level and warm 100°F (+ 10°F, - 0°F) wash temperature. If seams are taped sealed, then taped areas of the end item shall be visually examined prior to laundering for physical surface appearance characteristics and initial tape end and integrity conditions. The slide, hook/loop and snap fasteners of each end item shall be closed with the right side of each end item out during the wash and drying cycles. Place 28 grams of detergent conforming to 1993 AATCC Standard Reference Detergent (non-phosphate) without optical brighteners into the washer. The duration of each laundering cycle shall be 30 to 35 minutes.
After laundering, place end items in an automatic tumble dryer set on permanent press cycle, high heat setting (150°F -160°F) and run approximately for 45 minutes. Conduct five (5) laundering and drying cycles. After the fifth laundering and drying cycle, test and evaluate the end items for conformance to the required characteristics in this table. The laundering equipment (washer and dryer) shall be in accordance with AATCC-135.

Sealed Seams Appearance After Laundering
ASTM International ASTM D751 Standard Test Method for Coated Fabrics
a. After five (5) laundering cycles, the trouser shall be examined for any sign of tape ends lifting, within 3/4-inch of sewn seam; tape ends lifting more than 1/8-inch when tape extends beyond 3/4-inch of the sewn seam, tape curling, bubbling, separation along tape edges or across the tape width, or tape outer layer more than 1/8-inch. The occurrence of any of these defects shall be considered a test failure. Tape ends lifting more than 1/8-inch beyond 3/4-inch of the sewn seam shall be tested for hydrostatic resistance in accordance with ASTM D751 Procedure B, Procedure 2. b. Color loss in print areas of camouflage pattern. After five (5) laundering cycles, the color loss shall be determined by comparing the laundered and unlaundered samples. Any color change on any area of the trouser less than the required rating on the AATCC Gray Scale for evaluating change in color shall be considered a test failure. Any physical surface appearance characteristic noted in a taped area on the unlaundered sample shall not be considered a test failure on the laundered trouser if there is no adverse change in the characteristic. Puckering and creases within taped areas, not adversely affecting appearance shall not be considered a test failure. c. Physical surface appearance changes of the basic shell material. After five (5) laundering cycles, the camouflage face side of the end item shall be visually examined on all visible pattern parts for any evidence of physical surface appearance changes as unlaundered sample. Any physical surface appearance change shall be considered a test failure. Any physical surface appearance characteristic noted in a taped area on the unlaundered end item, if seams are tape sealed, shall not be considered a test failure on the laundered end item if there is no adverse change in the characteristic. Puckering and creases within taped areas, not adversely affecting appearance shall not be considered a test failure.
