RATING SCALE
| 1. | Excellent, recommended for both static and dynamic services |
| 2. | Good resistance, usually satisfactory in static applications, might work in dynamic applications |
| 3. | Limited resistance, might work under certain conditions |
| 4. | Not recommended for service |
| N/A | No rating due to insufficient data |
