ASTM F1829 Standard Test for Static Evaluation of Anatomical Glenoid Locking Mechanism in Cutting

EUROLAB laboratory provides testing and compliance services within the scope of ASTM F1829 standard. This standard specifies a method for determining the static shear removal force of modular anatomical glenoid components used in anatomical total shoulder arthroplasty prostheses.

While the described methodology does not replicate all physiological force conditions, it is a means of in vitro comparison of modular anatomical glenoid component designs and the strength of the retention mechanism between the articular attachment and the glenoid support under specified test conditions.

This standard covers modular glenoid components consisting of a separate joint attachment and support. The insert and backing can be produced from any combination of the following materials: metal alloys, polymeric materials, composite materials.

Values ​​stated in SI units should be accepted as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.

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