This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by en

12、dorsement, at the latest by March 1999, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by March 1999 According to the CENKENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium,

13、 Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the technical requirements, the appropriate dimensions and the requirements for

14、testing. This European Standard applies to castors for general furniture applications, but specifically excludes those for swivel chairs and other specialised applications. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications.

Page 4 EN 12528: 1998 4 Dimensions and classification The characteristics of a castor are: - fixing system - castor type - dimensions - performance level 4.1 Fixing system The fixing system includes top plates, stem and circlip, threaded ste

18、m and other fixing systems. Fixings shall be chosen with reference to the application of the castor. 4.2 Castor type Castors are classified into four types (H, W, C and S). These all apply to the castor designs illustrated in figures 1, 2 and 3. 4.2.1 Type H: Castors with plain wheels are defined as

19、 Type H, hard tread. NOTE: These castors are suitable for carpeted floors. 4.2.2 Type W: Castors with resilient tyred wheels are defined as Type W, soft tread. NOTE: These castors are suitable for hard stone, wooden or tiled floors or those featuring non-textiled covering. 4.2.3 TypeC: Castors which

20、 are electrically conductive. Type C castors may have a hard or soft tread. NOTE: These castors shall have either modified type H or type W wheels. 4.2.4 Type S: Inclined axle castor 4.3 Dimensions The figures 1,2 and 3 show typical castor designs; table 1 shows the specified dimensions.
