Scope
This part of ISO 8124 specifies the categories of flammable materials vvhich are prohibited in ali toys and requirements concerning flammability of certain toys when they are submitted to a small source of ignition. The test methods described in ciause 5 are used for the purposes of determining the flammability of toys underthe particular test conditions specified. The test results thus obtained cannot be considered as pro- viding an overall indication of the potential fire hazard of toys or materials when subjected to other sources of ignition. This part of ISO 8124 includes general requirements relating to ali toys and specific requirements and methods of test relating to the foliovving toys vvhich are considered as being those presenting the greatest hazard: — beards, moustaehes, vvigs, masks and other prod- ucts worn on the head vvith pile, hair or other at- tached material; — disguise costumes {e.g. cowboy outfits, nurses' uniforms) including the associated headgear, and toys intended to be vvorn by a child (excluding products covered by 4.2 and paper novelty hats, e.g. those supplied in crackers); — toys intended to be entered by a child (e.g. toy tents, puppet theatres, vvigvvams); — filled soft toys vvith a pile surface or textile surface but excluding soft-bodied dolls vvith heads and limbs made entirely from nontextile polymeric material. NOTE 1 Additional requiremerrts for the flammability of electrical tovs are specified in EN 50088, Safety of electrical toys.
