Standard Specification for Ski Binding Test Devices
ABSTRACT
This specification covers requirements for devices used to determine the release moments of ski equipment in retail sales and rental facilities; it is applicable to the manufacture, repair, and calibration of such devices. Classification: Type I-a device capable of indicating both positive and negative release moments (Mz); Type IA-a device type I with specified limits of linear displacement or angular deflection; Type IB-a type I device limited in use to a specified binding or group of bindings; Type II-a device capable of indicating both positive and negative release moments (My); Type IIA-a type II device with specified limits of linear displacement or angular deflection; Type IIB-a type II device limited in use to a specified binding or group of bindings; and Type III-a device other than type I or type II with specified capability. The test device shall be of a design such that when tested will meet the requirements prescribed. If the device is designed to indicate force, and a distance measurement is required to calculate the moment, the magnitude of the smallest increment of the distance measurement shall not be greater than 5 % of the shortest measurement anticipated.
SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers requirements for devices used to determine the release moments of ski equipment in retail sales and rental facilities.
1.2 This specification is applicable to the manufacture, repair, and calibration of such devices.
1.3 This specification is to be used with Test Method F1062.
1.4 The values expressed in newton metres, newtons, and centimetres are to be regarded as the standard.
1.5 The values expressed in units of torque may be converted to the appropriate force values when devices that indicate force are used.

Ski Binding Test Devices
This standard is issued under the fixed designation F1061; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year of
original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. A
superscript epsilon (´) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.
INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this specification is to aid in the selection of ski binding test devices appropriate for
the needs of ski equipment sales and rental facilities. Devices which meet this specification exceed the
requirements of Practices F1063 and F1064. Therefore, a device that does not meet this specification
may still satisfy the requirements of Practices F1063 and F1064.
