These ASTM F2412 impulse and fatigue testing of materials systems for safety footwear test methods measure the resistance of footwear to a variety of hazards that can potentially result in injury. These ASTM F2412 test methods may be used to test for compliance to minimum performance requirements in established safety standards.
These ASTM F2412 test methods can be used to determine any one, or all of the following:
- ASTM F2412 can determine the impact resistance for the toe area of footwear, I.
- ASTM F2412 can determine the compression resistance for the toe area of footwear, C.
- ASTM F2412 can determine the metatarsal impact resistance that reduces the chance of injury to the metatarsal bones at the top of the foot, Mt.
- ASTM F2412 can determine the conductive properties which reduce hazards that may result from static electricity buildup, and reduce the possibility of ignition of explosives and volatile chemicals, Cd.
- ASTM F2412 can determine the resistance to electric hazard, EH.
- ASTM F2412 can determine the static dissipative performance properties to reduce hazards due to excessively low footwear electrical resistance that may exist where SD footwear is required, SD, and
- ASTM F2412 can determine the puncture resistance on footwear devices, PR.
