This International Standard is in
25、tended to assist this process, in that, through its implementation, the safety and longevity of repaired pallets will be maximised. This International Standard also refers particularly to new pallet standards and prescriptive pallet specifications in wide use.There is no requirement in this Internat
26、ional Standard for pallet repairers to undertake tests, since, if guidance given in this International Standard is followed and systematic repair and inspection systems are used, then a successful repair is assumed to follow.There are four related International Standards: ISO 15629, Pallets for mate

29、Standard is applicable to wooden flat pallets repaired with wood based components.NOTE The maximum allowed defects and damage for pallets are described in this International Standard and the Annexes A to D show examples of defects and damage which make the widely used pallets unacceptable for use. F
30、or other pallet types similar criteria should be set up. The repair criteria for pool and rental pallets are controlled by their respective controlling operators/owners, and may be subject to a licence.2 Normative referencesThe following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in

35、acceptable pallet is if its condition is such that it cannot be regarded as safe and that handling the pallet might be dangerous for persons or goods (as illustrated in Annexes A to D).4.2 Nail joint strengthNail joint strength is particularly important for the performance of pallets.4.3 InspectionI
36、nspection of a pallet shall take place before any handling, whether loaded or empty.4.4 General conditions identifying an unacceptable palletThe general conditions which make a pallet unacceptable for use are as follows.a) One deckboard missing or broken, either obliquely or across.b) Either one blo
37、ck, stringer (bearer) or stringerboard missing or broken.c) Missing wood on deckboards to such an extent that on one deckboard, two or more nail shanks are visible, or on more than two deckboards, one or more nail shanks are visible, or missing wood of more than 1/4 of the width of the board for 1/4
38、 length. Missing wood on a deckboard between the blocks of more than 1/4 of the width of the deckboard.d) Splits on deckboards of more than 1/2 of the width or the length of the deckboard, which cannot be securely nailed.e) Wings on pallets may only have missing wood from inner deckboard ends for a
39、maximum of 1/3 of projecting wing length.f) Missing wood on blocks, stringers (bearers) or stringerboards, if more than one nail shank is visible at any one joint.g) Depending on use, dirty or contaminated pallet. If any doubt exists as to the nature of the contamination, care shall be taken in its
40、identification and subsequent disposal.h) Older pallets with a combination of minor damage or loose joints and with a poor appearance may have a combination of issues and be unacceptable when viewed as a whole.i) Pallets with bad workmanship. Pallets with materials or components that have been previ
41、ously incorrectly applied.j) Components affected by decay which could affect their mechanical properties.k) Full width splits of any length in stringer (bearer) notches.NOTE Attention is also drawn to publication UIC-Leaflet 4354 (2010) Repair of EUR flat pallets and EUR box pallets.5 Repair5.1 Gene

They shall be in accordance with the relevant specifications of the pallet and its repair requirements in the relevant standards. Re-used components shall conform to all the requirements of the new pallet component specifi
