Title
Standard Specification for Protective Headgear Used in Martial Arts
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Nov 1, 2004
Scope:
This specification covers performance requirements for head protection
used for training and
competition in martial arts such as karate, wushu, and taekwondo,
where normal contact between
participants may be repeated, but is limited to a level that is not
intended to produce injury.
These activities typically take place in indoor or outdoor
environments where the temperature is
moderate. This specification recognizes the desirability of a
lightweight and streamlined
construction, and ventilation; however it is a performance
specification, and is not intended to
restrict design.
All testing and requirements of this specification shall be in
accordance with Test Methods F 1446,
except where noted in this specification.
Partial utilization of this standard is prohibited. Any statement of
compliance with this
specification shall be a certification that the product meets all of
the requirements of the
specification in its entirety. A product that fails to meet any one of
the requirements of this
specification is considered to have failed the specification, and
shall not be distributed or sold
with any indication that it meets parts of the specification.
This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns,
if any, associated with its
use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to
establish appropriate safety and
health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory
limitations prior to use.
