Schuhe - Prüfverfahren für Reißverschlüsse - Widerstand gegen Beschädigung während des Schließens mit einer Lateralkraft (ISO 18403:2016); Deutsche Fassung EN ISO 18403:2016
Overview
This standard specifies a test method intended to determine the maximum lateral force applied to a slide fastener for footwear under which it will close without failure. The method is applicable to all types of slide fastener. A test slide fastener is slowly closed under incrementally increasing lateral forces until the fastener fails. The responsible committee for this standard is NA 062-10-11 AA "Schuhe" ("Footwear") at DIN Standards Committee Materials Testing (NMP).
