This classification provides a universal way to designate a commercially available rubber material, according to its
physical properties and the extent of additional test requirements and the description of these tests by the use of alpha
numeric “line callouts”.
b) the prefix letter M if the classification system is based on SI units. If there is no prefix, the “inch-pound” unit
system is to be used;
c) the grade number, which is either ‘1’ if the basic requirements apply or grades higher than ‘1’ if there is a
deviation or additional requirements;
g) minimum tensile strength in MPa (or psi divided by 100 for inch-pound system);
M = specification is in SI units.
2 = Grade 2.
C = Material with no greater than 120% volume swell when exposed to IRM 903 oil for 70 hours.
A14 = ‘A’ denotes “heat resistance”; ‘1’ indicates “test method D 573” which shall be applied for 70 hours;
‘4’ indicates a test temperature of 100°C. Additionally, for grade 2, the change in durometer hardness shall
be no greater than +15 points, the change in tensile strength shall be no greater than −15% and the change in
ultimate elongation shall be no greater than −40%.
EO34 = ‘EO’ denotes “fluid resistance in oils and lubricants”; ‘3’ indicates that “test method D 471”, which
uses IRM 903 Oil for 70 hours; ‘4’ indicates a test temperature of 100°C. Additionally, for grade 2, the
change in volume shall be no greater than 5% and no less than 3%.

Technical Data Sheet
Decoding ASTM D2000
The tables below will help you to decode the Type (heat resistance) and Class (oil resistance).
The following tables will help identify a particular rubber compound appropriate for the specific Type and Class and
identify the suffix letters.
