This British Standard specifies the conditions for carrying out the Izod impact test on metals. The test consists of measuring the energy absorbed in breaking a notched test piece by one blow from a striker carried by a pendulum. The test piece is gripped vertically with the root of the notch in the same plane as the upper face of the grips. The blow is struck on the same face as the notch and at a fixed height above it.
