This part of ISO 12625 specifies a test method for the determination of the wet tensile strength of tissue paper and tissue products after soaking with water, using a tensile-strength-testing apparatus operating with a constant rate of elongation.Currently, two types of tensile-strength testers are commercially available, one where the test piece is positioned vertically and, for the other, horizontally. This part of ISO 12625 applies for both. For vertical tensile-strength testers, a device which is held in the lower grip of the tensile-strength tester, called a Finch Cup, is used to achieve the wetting. For horizontal tensile-strength testers, the soaking
