1、Designation: F513 12 An American National StandardStandard Specification forEye and Face Protective Equipment for Hockey Players1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F513; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year of originaladoption or, in the case of revisi
2、on, the year of last revision.Anumber in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscriptepsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers performance requirements andtest methods for face protectors marketed, sold, and
3、 intendedfor ice hockey.1.2 The intent of this specification is to reduce the risk ofinjury to the face without compromising the form or appeal ofthe game. To do so, the face protector shall be used:1.2.1 As intended within the rules of the game and1.2.2 In accordance with the manufacturers instruct
4、ions.1.3 Ice hockey is a sport with intrinsic hazards associatedwith the normal conduct of the game. Participation in icehockey implies the acceptance of some risk of injury. Use of aface protector certified to this specification will not prevent allinjuries.1.4 This specification has been prepared
5、after careful con-sideration of the frequency and mechanisms associated withfacial and eye injuries that can potentially occur within therules of the game of ice hockey.1.5 Requirements and the corresponding test methods,where appropriate, are given for the following:1.5.1 Construction,1.5.2 Puck im
6、pact resistance,1.5.3 Penetration,1.5.4 Field of vision, and1.5.5 Marking and information.1.6 Face protection is intended for use by players,goalkeepers, and certain functionaries (for example, refereesand coaches). Types of protectors considered under this speci-fication are:1.6.1 Type B1A full-fac
7、e protector intended for use bypersons older than ten years of age, other than goaltenders;1.6.2 Type B2A full-face protector intended for use bypersons ten years of age or younger, other than goaltenders;and1.6.3 Type C (Visor)A visor intended for use by person inthe junior age category and older,
8、other than goaltenders.1.7 UnitsThe values stated in SI units are to be regardedas the standard. No other units of measurement are included inthis standard.1.8 Use of the singular does not exclude the plural (and viceversa) when the sense allows.1.9 Although the intended primary application of this
9、speci-fication is stated in this scope, note that it remains theresponsibility of the users of this specification to judge itssuitability for their particular purpose.1.10 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of
10、 the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.
