1.1.1 Asphalt-saturated burlap fabric shall be used with asphalt base plying cement; typical ones are mopping asphalts conforming to Specifications D312/D312M, D449/D449M, or appropriate solvent-bearing bituminous materials.

1.1.2 Coal-tar-saturated burlap fabric shall be used with coal-tar base plying cements; typical ones are coal-tar pitches conforming to Specification D450/D450M, or appropriate solvent-bearing bituminous materials.

1.2 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in nonconformance with the standard.
