standard by International Organization for Standardization, 12/01/2001
More info
Full Description
This part of ISO 11393 specifies requirements and the test methods to be used to assess the resistance of gaiters to cutting by hand-held chain-saws and other properties. A requirement and a test method for assessing the strength of underfoot straps of gaiters is also included.
This part of ISO 11393 is applicable to gaiters which are to be used in conjunction with safety footwear with a metallic toecap complying with ISO8782-2, because gaiters alone offer only partial protection against chain-saw cutting.
This part of ISO 11393 is not applicable to gaiters intended for use in situations where there is a significant risk of tripping such as tree climbing or in forests.
