1、Designation: F 939 06Standard Practice forSelection of Release Torque Values for Alpine Ski Bindings1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F 939; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revisi

2、on. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONAdhering to these guidelines may help to reduce the risk of injuries resulting from improper releasetorque selection. However, s

3、kiing involves inherent risks. Injury can result from simply falling down,impact with another object, or from many other actions. Many injuries are unrelated to bindingrelease/retention characteristics. Furthermore, even a properly adjusted binding cannot release underall injury-producing loads or r

4、etain at all times when retention is desired. Therefore, it is to be clearlyunderstood that compliance with these guidelines in no way guarantees that injury can be prevented.1. Scope1.1 This practice provides procedures for the selection ofrelease torque values for Alpine ski/boot/bindings systems.

5、These procedures may be used by ski binding manufacturers intheir instructions for installation and use and by ski shops forthe adjustment of already mounted ski bindings.1.2 This practice is applicable to releasableAlpine ski/boot/binding systems.1.3 Release torque values selected using this practi

6、ce maynot be appropriate for circumstances in which:1.3.1 The skier carries an object that significantly increasesthe skiers effective body weight,1.3.2 The skier grasps or in some manner controls an objectsuch as a sled, or1.3.3 The skier encounters exceptional snow or terrainconditions not commonl

7、y found on developed ski slopes.1.4 This practice may be inappropriate for non-mechanicalbindings or bindings used with boots that reach more than halfway up the lower leg.1.5 Release torque values outside the recommendations ofthis practice may increase the risk of injury to the skier.However, skie

8、rs who are informed of this potential risk mayrequest such settings and have them provided, subject to anyguidelines and limitations specified by the binding manufac-turer.1.6 These values refer to recommended release torque forinitial adjustment of a ski binding and subsequent readjustmentof the bi

9、nding during routine maintenance or following asuspected malfunction. However, these values are not intendedto apply to the condition of the equipment at any time after itis put into use.1.6.1 For information concerning applicable tolerances tobe used for the adjustment and inspection of releasable
