Title
Standard Specification for Rubber Contraceptives (Male Condoms)
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Jun 15, 2008
Scope:
This specification covers the minimum requirements for
individually packaged male condoms made from natural rubber latex
and intended for single use. This specification does not cover the
specifications for lubricants or other dressing materials that may
be applied to condoms except as noted in 3.2.
This specification is intended to assist buyers in obtaining
condoms of consistent quality. The safe and proper use of condoms
is excluded from the scope of this specification.
The applicability of this specification is as a design guideline
and a reference test specification. It is not intended to be a
routine quality control specification for condom manufacturing
operations.
The annexes in this specification include important information,
such as that on apparatus or materials, that is a mandatory part of
the specification but too detailed for inclusion in the main
text.
The appendixes in this specification contain information
intended to provide guidance only and are not a mandatory part of
the specification.
It shall be the responsibility of the manufacturer for any
condom design that falls outside the specifications of this
standard to determine testing methodology and substantiate the
appropriateness of that methodology to assure the quality of the
condoms to the purchaser and to the government regulatory authority
having jurisdiction.
The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the
standard. The values given in parentheses are for information
only.
