Introduction　介紹

For more than sixty years .the predecessor to this specification, ANSI Z41, established the performance criteria for a \wide range of footwear to protect from hazards that affect the personal safety of workers.

The value of these standards was recognized early in the history of occupational safety and health administration (OSHA0 and incorporated as a reference standard in the code of federal regulations (CFR) 1910.

The specification contains performance requirements for footwear to protect workers feet from the following hazards by providing:(I) impact resistance for the toe area of footwear;(2) compression resistance for the toe area of the footwear;(3) metatarsal impact protection that reduces the chance of injury to the metatarsal bones at the top of the foot ;(4) conductive properties which reduce hazards that may result from static electricity buildup; and reduce the possibility of ignition of explosives and volatile chemicals;(5)electric shock resistance, to protect the wearer when accidental contact is made with live electric wires;(6)volatile dissipative (SD)properties to reduce hazards due to excessively low footwear resistance that may exist where SD footwear is required ;(7)puncture resistance of footwear bottoms;(8)chain saw cut resistance ;and (9)dielectric insulation.

1.      Scope 范圍　

1.1  This specification covers minimum requirements for the design, performance, testing and classification of footwear designed to protection against a variety of workplace hazards that can potentially result in injury.

1.2  The objective of this specification is to prescribe fit, function and performance criteria for footwear that is intended to be worn to reduce injuries.

1.3   This specification is not intended to serve as a detailed manufacturing or purchasing specification, but can be referenced in purchase contracts to ensure that minimum performance requirements are met.

1.4  Controlled laboratory tests used to determine compliance with the performance requirements of the specification shall not be deemed as establishing performance levels for all situations to which individuals may be exposed.

1.5  The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard the values in parentheses are for information only.

1.6  Standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use .it is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

Line 2       M/I/75/C/75        footwear worm by male worker which has a class 75impact resistance and a class 75 compression resistance.

7.1.1 the label uses a specific four line format that identifies the type of footwear and the hazards for which it is designed to provide protection.

7.1.2 print size on labels shall be clearly visual to the eye and shall measure 3.75mm (0.25in) or larger.

7.1.3 line 1-idenfifies that the footwear is protective footwear that complies to an ASTM standard with a specific year of issuance. for example:

           ASTM F2413                                05

        (ASTM standard NO)                     (Year of issuance)

7.1.4 Line 2- identifies the gender of user and the classifications for impact resistance. Compression resistance, and metatarsal impact resistance, for example:

 M/I/75/C/75

F/I/75C/75

M/I/50/C/50/Mt/50

7.1.5 lines 3 and line 4- identifies footwear made to offer protective from specific type of hazards. Section reference shall be in numerical order:

7.1.5.1 CD – identifies protection against conductive hazards as discussed in 5.4.

7.1.5.2 EH-identifies footwear with outsole and heel made of electrical insulation properties: shock resistant as dedscussedin 5.5

7.1.5.3 SD – identifies footwear designed to reduce the accumulation of exce4ssstaic staic electricity as discussed in 5.6

7.1.5.4 PR- identifies footwear designed to be puncture resistant as discussed in 5.7.

7.1.5.5 Mt-identifies footwear designed to be impact resistant to the top of the foot as discussed in 5.3.

7.1.5.6 CS – identifies footwear which provides chain saw cut resistance as noted in 5.8.

 7.1.5.7 DI – identifies footwear which provides dielectric insulation as noted in 5.9.05

 7.1.6 line 4-shall only be used when more than three sections of this specification apply to any pair of protective footwear.

8.0 marking and compliance requirements

8.1 the marking as defined in this specification indicates that the protective footwear bearing this label meets the minimum requirements for the product category as defined within this specification.
