Title
Standard Performance Specification for Privacy Padlocks
ASTM International
Publication Date:
May 1, 2004
Scope:
This specification covers functional, operational, and security
requirements for padlocks. Included
are function descriptions, operational tests, forcing tests, and
surreptitious entry tests.
This specification describes and grades various levels of performance
to provide users of the
specification with criteria upon which to select suitable padlocks.
Tests described are laboratory tests, and although they simulate field
conditions as to attacks,
they do not duplicate these conditions. Tests described are repeatable
in the laboratory.
Some users of this specification may wish to use padlocks that have
special attributes not related
to security.
This specification describes and grades various levels of performance
provided by limited dual
custody operation.
The specific padlocks included have shackles of limited diameter,
permitting attachment to existing
zipper slides and zipper pulls and other devices provided for closure.
These padlocks are considered "privacy padlocks" offering limited
protection to forced attack
similar to that provided by tamper-indicative security seals. A
successful forced attack would be
indicated by the damage done to the padlock. For padlocks offering
greater protection to forced
attack, the user is directed to Performance Specification F 883.
The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The
inch-pound units given in
parentheses are provided for information only.
The following precautionary caveat pertains only to the test method
portions, Sections 8-11, of
this specification: This standard does not purport to address 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.
