American European bending tester

Test Purpose:

To determine if metal wires in children's products bend or break under stress, creating sharp edges or points that pose choking or injury hazards.

Compliance Standards:

  • 16 CFR CPS USA: Child Product Safety Certification
  • ASTM F963: Standard Consumer Safety Specification for Toy Products
  • EN 71: European Toy Safety Directive

Test Methodology:

Test ParameterSpecification
Deformation Test Apply 3N axial force for 5 minutes
Bend Test Flex the wire at 90° angle with 5mm radius mandrel
Edge Evaluation Check for sharp edges using ISO 4671-1:2017 gauge

Product advantages:

Ensures Child Safety: Directly tests for potential hazards from metal wires, significantly reducing the risk of cuts, punctures, or ingestion of broken pieces.

Dual Market Compliance: Designed to perform tests required by both US (ASTM, 16 CFR) and European (EN 71) standards, simplifying testing for manufacturers targeting both markets.

Objective and Quantifiable Results: Provides measurable outcomes (deformation percentage, breakage force) and a pass/fail assessment for sharp edges based on standardized methods.

Supports Design and Quality Control: Valuable for validating material choices, evaluating product design, and performing quality checks during manufacturing.

Reduces Risk of Recalls: Helps prevent costly and damaging product recalls by ensuring compliance with safety regulations before products are shipped.

Acceptance Criteria:

  • No permanent deformation exceeding 15% of original length
  • No sharp edges exceeding 0.5mm radius
  • Maximum allowable breakage force ≥ 2N
