1、Designation: F 2010 00 (Reapproved 2005)Standard Test Method forEvaluation of Glove Effects on Wearer Hand Dexterity Usinga Modified Pegboard Test1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F 2010; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, i
2、n the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method is used for evaluating hand dexteritywhile wearing gloves.1.1.1
3、This test method covers procedures in which thewearer picks up small objects between the thumb and indexfinger.1.2 This test method is suitable for evaluating gloves andother forms of hand protection that allow the wearer to pick upsmall objects between their thumb and index finger.1.3 This test met
4、hod does not address all effects of glove useon hand function. Other methods should be considered toevaluate the effects of gloves on grip, tactility, and other handfunctions of interest.NOTE 1This test method may not apply to all glove types orapplications.1.4 The values stated in SI units or in ot
5、her units shall beregarded separately as standard. The values stated in eachsystem must be used independently of the other, withoutcombining values in any way.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user
6、 of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Summary of Test Method4.1 The time required for a test subject to place pegs into apegboard is measured without gloves and then later whilewearing gloves. The additional time required to perform thetask while wearing gloves is rep
11、orted and is used to indicate theeffects of the gloves on wearer dexterity.5. Significance and Use5.1 The test method is intended to provide a quantitativemeasurement about the effect of gloves on wearer dexterity bycomparing the times required to perform a simple task with andwithout gloves.5.2 Thi
12、s test method does not discriminate all glove effectson wearer hand function or apply to all glove types andapplications. Additional evaluations or tests representative ofthe glove use application should be performed to determine theoverall impact of gloves on wearer hand function.6. Apparatus6.1 Te

Test Specimen7.1 For each style of glove evaluated, test five pairs (tengloves), preferably of five different sizes. When less than fivedifferent glove sizes are available for
18、 the particular glove style,test different pairs of the same size so that a total of at least fivedifferent glove pairs are tested.7.2 Test each glove in new, as distributed, condition. Do notapply special softening treatments to gloves prior to tests.8. Test Preparation8.1 Evaluate each pair of glo
19、ves with a separate test subject.8.2 The hand dimensions of test subjects must be as close aspossible to those specified in manufacturers glove sizingguidelines.8.3 Familiarize test subjects with the test apparatus andprocedure by having test subjects practice the test three timesbefore conducting a
20、n actual test, but not on the same day as theactual test. Each test subject should use their dominant hand inpicking up pegs.8.4 Use test subjects that have a baseline dexterity timebetween 25 and 45 s.9. Procedure9.1 Before each test, randomly scatter the pegs on the testsurface adjacent to the peg
21、board (laying flat on the test surface)in the working area most comfortable to the test subject (that is,on the right side for right-handed test subjects and on the leftside for left-handed test subjects, or directly in front).9.2 Instruct the test subject to pick up with one hand (usingtheir domina
22、nt hand) one peg at a time and place them in thepegboard beginning at the upper left corner and proceeding leftto right and top to bottom. Instruct the test subject to pick upeach peg with a pincer motion near the center of the barrel ofthe peg and not by sliding, standing, or otherwise supportingth
23、e peg with another object (such as the pegboard, another peg,or the test subjects free hand). Instruct the test subject to useonly one hand, and not to alternate hands during the test series.Instruct the test subject that the pegboard may be stabilized, ifnecessary, such as with the use of the test
24、subjects free hand.9.3 Measure the time for the test subject to put pegs into thepegboard beginning when the test subject touches the first peguntil the test subject places the last peg into the pegboard.9.4 Perform steps 9.1-9.3 with the test subject barehanded.Repeat this procedure until the coeff
25、icient of variation in thetimes of the last three repetitions is less than 8 %. Use theaverage dexterity test time of the last three repetitions as thebaseline dexterity test time (DTTb). Conduct each test withoutthe test subjects knowledge of the dexterity test time for eachtest.9.5 Perform steps 9
26、.1-9.3 with the test subject wearing thetest gloves. Repeat this procedure until the coefficient ofvariation in the times of the last three repetitions is less than8 %. Use the average dexterity test time of the last threerepetitions as the dexterity test time with gloves (DTTg).Conduct each test wi
27、thout the test subjects knowledge of thedexterity test time for each test.10. Calculation10.1 Determine the coefficient of variation (cov) as requiredin 9.4 and 9.5 by dividing the standard deviation of the lastthree replicate dexterity times by the average of the same threereplicate dexterity times
28、 and then multiplying by 100.10.2 Compare the dexterity test times with gloves with thebaseline dexterity test time for each test subject. Calculate thepercentage of barehand control for each test subject and glovesize evaluated as follows:Percent of barehand control 5DTTgDTTb100! (1)where:DTTg= dex
