This International Standard specifies methods for the selection of the release torques for alpine ski-bindings in current use, and gives information necessary to determine the release torques.
It applies to torque-measuring binding-test machines.
It may be inappropriate for non-mechanical bindings or bindings used with boots which reach more than half-way up the lower leg.
NOTE Manufacturers may use either of the two specified methods as the basis for their recommended release torques.
Release torques are to be recommended for use by ski-binding manufacturers in their instructions for installation and use, and by ski shops for the adjustment of already mounted ski-bindings.
