38、226 236 241 Disributors and retailem should be able to supply manufacturem with information about the range of hand sizes in a particular local population. This wiU ensure the availability of the appropriate glove sizes to ailow at least 90 % of that population to be adequaly fitted. It is to be exp
39、ected that around 5 % of the population wiii require speciaily made gloves in order to achieve optimum fitting. This will often be due to problems with digit 1 and crotch 1 heights. B.4.2 Forearms There is iitte data available on the dimensions of adult forearms. It is estimated from limited data th
40、at the 5 % to 95 % range of dimension 18 in fgure B.2 for European fedes is 160 mm to 210 mm and for European maies is 190 mm to 240 mm. The dimensions of the test arms in 5.7 is based on a population of young ad - 160 mm of coverage is provided by arm guards designed to t Red and Blue gloves when u
41、sed with the gloves; - 180 mm of coverage is provided by arm guards designed to fit Orange gloves when used with the gloves. Other sizes of arm guards may be provided though increments of no more than 20 mm between sizes should be available. B.6.6.2 Arm guctrd diamter ”he following ranges of dimensi
42、ons are recommended a) For the distal end the largest diameter of the opening with the glove attached should be 65 mm to 90 mm. The dimension from the back to the front of the wrist may be 10 mm less than the width. b) For the proximal end the opening should be 85 mm to 125 mm. c) These ranges may b

44、iameter 65 85 It should be noted that some people will require shorter and wider arm guards than those in the table. It may be possible to cut down long arm guards to provide this. B.7 Long cuff and chain mail arm guard lengths The selection of a glove with an appropriate length of long cuff or chai
45、n mail ann guard should be guided by the infom-tation on forem sizes in B.4.2. The distance between the proximd end of the cuff of arm guard and the upper ami when the elbow is flexed at 90” (Distance (C) in clauses 4.1.3 and 4.1.6.4 and figure 2), should not be more than 75 mm. This distance can be
46、 less than the 45 mm length recommended for rigid arm guards on which the turned out lip tends to dig into the upper arm. The lem commonly mufactured are given in table B.4. 110 130 Page 23 EN 1082-1 1996 71 95 77 105 I Table B.4 Long cuff lengths I 1240 I220 I 265 and 295 Long cuffs are usually sup
47、plied so that particular glove sizes have a singie long cuff length. For example: - 200 mm long cuffs may only be supplied on Green and white gloves; - 220 mm long cuffs may only be supplied on Red gloves; - 244 mm long cuffs may only be supplied on Blue and Orange gloves. Annex C (informative) Advi
48、ce on the selection of plastics for use inarmguards C.l Use The information in this annex is provided to assist usem, employers and manufacturem. C.2 Content This annex contains information on the degradation of plastics and how it may be recognized. Attention is crawn to the need in the food indust
49、ry for sterilization of equipment. Information should be provided to guide usem in the selection of safe and effective stedization procedures for plastics. C.3 Degradation of plastics Plastics such as those used to make arm guards degrade in a number of ways. The following may a) Chemical changes in the plastics altering the bonding of its constituent molecules. This may occur as a function of time and temperature. b) Loss of plasticizer rendering the plastics brittle. c) Uptake of oils, fats, waxes and organic solvents altering the actio
