EN Flexure Tester GT-M44B

Application:

This EN Flexure Tester is used to test the metallic wires and other metallic components of a toy or part of a toy after repeated flexing, whether the toy will break and produce hazardous sharp points, or protrude through any surface covering of the toy.

Standards:

EN71-1

ISO 8124-1

GB6675-2 

1. Bend the component through a 60degree arc by a force, F, of (70 ± 2) N applied perpendicularly to the major axis of the component at a point 50 mm from the intersection of the component with the main body of the toy. If the component is less than 50 mm long, apply the force at the end of the wire.

2. Bend the metallic wire from the upright position to one side through 60°, and then bend in the opposite direction through 120 degree arc , and finally return to the upright position. This is one cycle.

3. Perform 30 times the cycle at a rate of one cycle per 2 s with a 60 s rest period after each 10 cycles.
