1. Purpose and Scope
1.1 This test method is designed to de-
termine the degree of color transfer from
the surface of textile floor coverings to
other surfaces by rubbing. The intent is to
reproduce as near as possible true-to-life
situations in all constructions whether
dyed, printed or otherwise colored.
1.2 Test procedures employing white
test cloths, both dry and wet with water,
are given.
1.3 As the use surface of a textile floor
covering may be exposed to various con-
ditions in true-to-life situations, such as
soil, stains, cleaning, shampooing and ap-
plication of chemical treatments such as
antisoils, antistats, antimicrobials, etc.,
the test may be made before, after or be-
fore and after such situations.
2. Principle
2.1 A colored test specimen held on
the base of a crockmeter is rubbed with a
white test cloth under controlled conditions.
2.2 Color transferred to the white test
cloth is rated by comparison with the
AATCC 9-Step Chromatic Transference
Scale or Gray Scale for Staining and a
grade is assigned.
3. Terminology
3.1 carpet, n.—all textile floor cover-
ings not designated as rugs.
3.2 colorfastness, n.—the resistance of
a material to change in any of its color
characteristics, to transfer of its colo-
rants(s) to adjacent materials or both, as a
result of the exposure of the material to
any environment that might be encoun-
tered during the processing, testing, stor-
age or use of the material.
3.3 crocking, n.a transfer of colo-
rant from the surface of a colored yarn or
fabric to another surface or to an adjacent
area of the same fabric principally by
rubbing.
3.4 rug, n.—a textile floor covering of
limited area which is complete in itself
and is intended for use as a partial cover-
ing of a floor or another floor covering.
3.5 textile floor covering, n.—an arti-
cle having a use-surface composed of
textile material and generally used for
covering floors.
3.6 use-surface, n.—of textile floor
covering, the part of a textile floor cover-
ing directly exposed to foot traffic.
4. Safety Precautions
NOTE: These safety precautions are for
information purposes only. These safety
precautions are ancillary to the testing
procedures and are not intended to be all
inclusive. It is the users responsibility to
use safe and proper techniques in han-
dling materials in this test method. Manu-
facturers MUST be consulted for specific
details such as material safety data sheets
and other manufacturers recommenda-
tions. All OSHA standards and rules must
also be consulted and followed.
4.1 Good laboratory practices should
be followed. Wear safety glasses in all
laboratory areas.
5. Apparatus and Materials (see 13.1)
5.1 Crockmeter (see 13.2 and 13.3).
5.2 Crock Block (see 13.3).
5.3 Crockmeter Test Cloth (see 13.4).
5.4 AATCC 9-Step Chromatic Trans-
ference Scale (AATCC EP8) (see 13.5).
5.5 Gray Scale for Staining (AATCC
EP 2) (see 13.5).
5.6 White AATCC Textile Blotting
Paper (see 13.5).
6. Test Specimens
6.1 Two specimens are used, one each
for the dry and the wet tests.
6.1.1 Additional specimens may be used
to increase the precision of the average.
6.2 Floor covering material: pieces at
least 50 × 150 mm. If the pile lay is dis-
tinguishable, cut the specimen with the
pile lay pointing in the long direction.
6.2.1 Larger or full width lab samples
may be used without cutting individual
specimens, when multiple tests are
needed and when using for production
testing.
7. Verification
7.1 Verification checks on the opera-
tion of the test and the apparatus should
be made routinely and the results kept in
a log. The following observations and
corrective actions are extremely impor-
tant to avoid incorrect test results where
abnormal crock images can result and in-
fluence the rating process.
7.2 Use an in-house poor crocking car-
pet or rug as a calibration specimen and
conduct three dry crock tests.
7.2.1 A double, elongated image may
indicate a loose sleeve.
7.2.2 A stretched and streaked crock
image may be due to mounting the crock
test cloth diagonally.
7.2.3 Arc shaped indentions in the
crocked area of the test cloth may indi-
cate the crock block is mounted improp-
erly, most likely perpendicular to the
specified placement (see 13.3).
7.3 Replace the abrasive paper on the
tester base if it is smooth to the touch in
the crocking area compared to the adja-
cent area, or if slippage of the specimen
is noticed.
8. Conditioning
8.1 Prior to testing, condition the test
specimens and the crock test cloth for dry
crock testing as directed in ASTM
D1776, Standard Practice for Condition-
ing and Testing Textiles. Condition each
specimen for at least 4 h in an atmosphere
of 21 ± 2°C (70 ± 4°C) and 65 ± 5% RH
by laying each test specimen or crock test
cloth separately on a screen or perforated
shelf of conditioning rack.
9. Procedures
9.1 Dry Crocking Test.
9.1.1 Place a test specimen on the base
of the crockmeter so that it rests flat on
the abrasive cloth with its long dimension
in the direction of rubbing (see 13.5). The
pile lay should point to the back of the
crockmeter if direction of pile is distin-
guishable.
9.1.2 Mount a 25 × 100 mm swatch of
white cotton test cloth over the rubbing
surface of the crock block. The test cloth
should be mounted so that the long di-
mension will be moving in the long direc-
tion during the test. This operation can be
carried out with the crock block attached
to the weighted arm of the crockmeter us-
ing an Allen socket cap screw (see 13.6)
or with the crock block detached from the
arm and inverted in a suitable crock block
holder (see 13.3 and 13.7). Fasten the test
cloth to the crock block by means of a
rectangular sleeve that slips over the cot-
ton fabric on the crock block. When
ready for testing, the test cloth on the
crock block projects downward from the
reciprocating arm of the crockmeter.
CAUTION: Do not drop the crock block.
Nicks or dents on the rubbing surfaces
might be irreparable. Handle With Care.
9.1.3 Lower the covered crock block

gently onto the test specimen. While
holding the specimen firmly with ex-
tended thumb and forefinger of the left
hand, execute ten (10) complete turns of
the crank at the rate of one (1) turn per s.
9.1.4 Remove the white test cloth, con-
dition (see 8.1) and evaluate as directed
in Section 10. In the case of napped,
brushed or sheared material when loose
fiber might interfere with the ratings, re-
move the extraneous fibrous material by
pressing lightly on the crock area with the
sticky side of clear self-adhesive tape be-
fore evaluating.
9.2 Wet Crocking Test.
9.2.1 Thoroughly wet the white test
cloth in distilled water.
9.2.2 By any convenient means, such
as squeezing between filter papers
through a hand wringer, bring the wet
pickup to 65 ± 5% based on the condi-
tioned weight of the dry test cloth under
standard conditions (21 ± 2°C [70° ± 4°F]
and 65 ± 5% RH) before testing (see 13.8).
9.2.3 Take care to prevent evaporation
which would reduce the moisture content
below the specified level before the ac-
tual crock test is run.
9.2.4 Continue testing as directed in 9.1.
9.2.5 Air-dry the test cloth before eval-
uating. In the case of napped, brushed or
sheared material when loose fiber might
interfere with the rating, remove the ex-
traneous fibrous material by pressing
lightly on the test cloth with the sticky
side of clear self-adhesive tape before
evaluating.
10. Evaluation
10.1 Evaluate the amount of color
transferred from the specimen to the
white test cloth under examination by
comparison with the Gray Scale for
Staining (AATCC EP2), the AATCC 9-
Step Chromatic Transference Scale
(AATCC EP8) or Instrumental Assess-
ment of Degree of Staining (AATCC
EP12), and record the numerical rating
that corresponds to the appropriate one
on either of them (see 13.5 and 13.9).
10.2 Place the test cloth on three layers
of clean white cloth for the evaluation.
10.3 Classify dry and wet fastness to
crocking. Different ratings may result de-
pending upon whether the Gray Scale for
Staining or AATCC 9-Step Chromatic
Transference Scale is used for the evalua-
tion. It is, therefore, important to report
which scale was used. For very critical
evaluations and in cases of arbitration,
ratings must be based on the Gray Scale
for Staining:
11. Report
11.1 Identify the sample tested.
11.2 Report the grade determined in
10.3.
11.3 Indicate whether dry or wet
crocking was performed.
11.4 Indicate whether AATCC EP2 or
AATCC EP8 was used for evaluating
crocking (see 10.3).
11.5 If the carpet or rug was subjected
to the conditions in 1.3 state this in the
report.
12. Precision and Bias (see 13.9)
12.1 Precision. An interlaboratory test
was conducted in 1997 to establish the
precision of the test method. Testing was
conducted under the normal atmospheric
conditions of each laboratory and not
necessarily under ASTM standard condi-
tions. Two operators at each of four labo-
ratories tested and rated six fabrics on
two consecutive days, both wet and dry
crock. Rating was performed using the
Gray Scale for Staining and the AATCC
9-Step Chromatic Transference Scale.
12.1.1 The results for one operator
chosen from each laboratory were evalu-
ated in an ANOVA two factor with repli-
cation analysis. The components of vari-
ance are given in Table I.
12.1.2 Critical differences are given in
Table II.
12.1.3 Example for determining be-
tween-laboratory differences using one
observer and the Chromatic Scale are
given in Table III.
Interpretation: For the dry crock test, be-
cause the difference between labs is less
than the critical difference in 12.1.2
(0.63), the difference in results is not sig-
nificant. For the wet crock test, since the
difference is greater than the critical dif-
ference (0.86), the difference in results is
significant.
12.2 Bias. The true value of colorfast-
ness to crocking can only be defined in
terms of a test method. Within this limita-
tion, this test method has no known bias.

methods.
13.2 The Crockmeter provides a reciprocat-
ing rubbing motion simulating the action of a
human finger and forearm. The counting de-
vice is useful when prolonged rubbings are re-
quired and is available at extra cost.
13.3 The Crockmeter is so designed that the
crock block with rectangular rubbing surface
19.0 × 25.4 mm moves back and forth, with
each complete turn of the crank along a
straight path approximately 100 mm in length
on a textile floor covering specimen with a
downward force in the order of 9 Newtons.
The crock block must be mounted in one di-
rection only; a cutout in the side of the stem
receives the screw that holds it in the recipro-
cating arm. The flat head screw can be re-
placed by an Allen socket cap screw (see 13.6)
or similar device that can be tightened and re-
leased by hand. A crock block holder can also
be used to assist in the mounting of the cotton
test cloth if so desired. Note that, with the rect-
angular slip-on sleeve provided with the crock
block, the test cloth can be mounted with ease
and speed while the crock block is still at-
tached to the weighted arm of the crockmeter.
13.4 Crockmeter Test Cloth should meet
the following specifications:
Fiber 100% 10.3-16.8 mm
combed cotton staple, de-
sized, bleached, with no
optical brightener or finish-
ing material present
Yarn 15 tex (40/1 cotton count),
5.9 turns/cm “z”
Thread count 32 ± 5 warp ends/cm: 33 ±
5 filling picks/cm
Weave 1/1 plain
pH 7 ± 0.5
Mass/sq meter 100 ± 3 g finished
Whiteness W = 78 ± 3 [AATCC
TM110)
13.4.1 CAUTION: ISO crock cloth results
may not be equivalent to AATCC crock cloth
results/values based on crock cloth study.
13.5 AATCC 9-Step Chromatic Transfer-
ence Scale, Gray Scale for Staining and
White AATCC Textile Blotting Paper are
available from AATCC, P.O. Box 12215,
Research Triangle Park NC 27709; tel: +1.
919.549. 8141; fax: +1.919.549.8933; e-mail:
ordering@aatcc.org; web site: www.aatcc.org.
13.6 Allen socket head cap screw, 10-32
threads, 20 mm long.
13.7 A crock block holder is simply a
weighted block with a hole bored in the top to
accommodate the 16 mm diameter stem of the
crock block when the latter has been inverted
for mounting of the test cloth.
13.8 Experienced operators do not have to
repeat this weighing procedure during a test
session once the technique is established.
13.9 The precision of this test method is de-
pendent on the combined variability of the
material being tested, the test method itself,
and the evaluation procedure utilized.
13.9.1 The precision statement shown in
Section 12 was developed from results ob-
tained by visual evaluations (AATCC EP2 and
AATCC EP8).
13.9.2 It is expected that the use of instru-
mental evaluation (EP12) will result in greater
precision than that obtained from visual evalu-
ations.
14. History
14.1 Reaffirmed and editorially revised to
include history section per the AATCC style
guide.
14.2 Editorially revised 2019, 2016; editori-
ally revised and reaffirmed 2013; editorially
revised 2011, 2010, 2009; editorially revised
and reaffirmed 2008 (with title change); edito-
rially revised 2004, 2002, 2001; revised 1999
(with title change); editorially revised 1996;
editorially revised and reaffirmed 1993; reaf-
firmed 1988, 1987.
14.3 Developed in 1986 by AATCC Com-
mittee RA57. Partly equivalent to ISO 105-X12.
