SM301 sample test record
This record is independent of the model selection above and does not change when switching models.
This reference sample record covers mechanical, surface and durability testing. Its correspondence to any of the five models is unconfirmed, so it is not a specification sheet for the selected model.
The source lists a total thickness of 311 μm, which differs from the nominal conversions of 7.5 / 8.5 / 9.5 mil. The thickness definition and corresponding model remain unverified. Puncture resistance retains the source unit of %, which also remains unverified.
