1、Designation: F2413 17F2413 18Standard Specification forPerformance Requirements for Protective (Safety) Toe CapFootwear1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F2413; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the

2、year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the U.S. Department of Defense.INTRODUCTIONFor more than sixty year

3、s, the predecessor to this specification, ANSI Z41, established theperformance criteria for a wide range of footwear to protect from hazards that affect the personalsafety of workers.The value of these standards was recognized early in the history of Occupational Safety and HealthAdministration (OSH

4、A) and incorporated as a reference standard in the Code of Federal Regulations(29 CFR Part 1910.132 and 29 CFR Part 1910.136).The principal purpose of this standard is the certification of protective footwear. Certification mustbe performed by independent third party laboratories in order for footwe

5、ar to bear theASTM marking.The specification contains performance requirements for footwear to protect workers feet from thefollowing hazards by providing: (1) impact resistance (I) for the toe area of footwear; (2) compressionresistance (C) for the toe area of the footwear; (3) metatarsal impact pr

6、otection (Mt) that reduces thechance of injury to the metatarsal bones at the top of the foot; (4) conductive properties (Cd) whichreduce hazards that may result from static electricity buildup; and reduce the possibility of ignition ofexplosives and volatile chemicals; (5) electric hazard protectio

7、n (EH), to protect the wearer whenaccidental contact is by stepping on live electric wires; (6) static dissipative properties (SD) to reducehazards due to excessively low footwear electrical resistance that may exist where SD footwear isrequired; and (7) puncture resistance (PR) footwear devices.1.

8、Scope1.1 This specification covers minimum requirements for the performance of footwear to provide protection against a variety ofworkplace hazards that can potentially result in injury.1.2 This specification is not intended to serve as a detailed manufacturing or purchasing specification, but can b

9、e referenced inpurchase contracts to ensure that minimum performance requirements are met.1.3 Controlled laboratory tests used to determine compliance with the performance requirements of this specification shall notbe deemed as establishing performance levels for all situations to which individuals

10、 may be exposed.1.4 Any changes to the original components of safety toe footwear such as replacing or adding after market footbeds/insertscould cause failure to any or all parts of this standard rendering the ASTM marking invalid.1.5 This specification is not applicable to overshoes with safety toe

11、 caps or strap on devices with safety toes.1.6 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.1.7 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibilit

12、yof the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability ofregulatory limitations prior to use.1 This specification is under the jurisdiction ofASTM Committee F13 on Pedestrian/Walkway Safety and Footwear and is the direct res
