rod is removed. Each externally exposed material (exclusive of textiles or elastic bands) shall be
tested.
PASS

5.2.4 Corrosion Resistance of Metal Components

When tested in accordance with Section 9.8, metal components used in protectors shall be corrosion
resistant to the degree that the function of the protector shall not be impaired by the corrosion. Lenses
and electrical components are excluded from these requirements.
PASS

5.2.5 Minimum Coverage Area

The eyewire and lens shall cover in plane view an area of not less than 40 mm (1.57 in.) in
width and 33 mm (1.30 in.) in height (elliptical) in front of each eye, centered on the
geometrical center of the lens.Frames designed for small head sizes shall cover in plane view
an area of not less than 34 mm (1.34 in.) in width and 28 mm (1.10 in.) in height (elliptical),
centered on the geometrical center of the lens.Frames designed for small head sizes shall be
tested on the 54 mm (2.13 in.) PD headform and are permitted to have an eye size, including
eyewire thickness, as small as 34 x 28mm (1.34 x 1.10 in.). Frames that are tested using the
small headform shall be marked on the frame with the letter “H.”

5.4 Marking Requirements
All protectors shall bear the permanent markings in specified locations as shown in Table 4a.
Markings shall follow the sequence shown in Table 4b. Markings for lens type and use application
shall be required only when claims for protection against the hazard or indicated use are made by the
manufacturer.

In addition, the components of frames that are intended for prescription protector use shall be marked
for size in accordance with the system described in ANSI Z80.5-2004. Fronts shall be marked with
the A-dimension (eye size) and DBL (distance between lenses). Temples shall be marked with their
overall length.

6.1.3 Lateral (Side) Coverage

When tested in accordance with Section 9.10, impact rated protectors shall provide
continuous lateral coverage (i.e. no openings greater than 1.5 mm (0.06 in.) in diameter) from
the vertical plane of the lenses tangential to a point not less than 10 mm (0.394 in.) posterior
to the corneal plane and not less than 10 mm (0.394 in.) in height (or 8 mm (0.315 in) for the
smaller headform) above and not less than 10 mm (0.394 in.) in height (or 8 mm (0.315 in)
