ASTM F2345 covers the evaluation of the static and cyclic fatigue strength of ceramic modular femoral heads, mounted on a cone as used on the femoral stem of the total hip arthroplasty. The methods of ASTM F2345 were primarily developed for evaluation of ceramic (Specifications F 603 and F 1873) head designs on metal cones but may have application to other materials.
By means of our testing expertise and modular product design, we will help find the solution that is right for you. Give our test engineers a call today for help configuring the best test machine and accessories according to ASTM F2345.
