Description

This European Standard specifies requirements and test methods for helmets intended for use by young children to provide head protection in situations with a risk of head injuries in combination with risk of strangulation. The standard is applicable for but not limited to: – children’s cycling – children’s roller-sports activities (skateboarding, roller skating, kick scooter riding etc) – children’s sledging activities (use of toboggan, sledge, snow tray etc) when there is a risk of strangulation due to the child playing in connection to the intended activity. Requirements and the corresponding methods of test are given for the following: – construction including field of vision; – shock absorbing properties; – retention system properties, including chin strap, fastening devices and self-release system; – marking and information.
