IS 16764 : 2024/ISO 8061 : 2019 Alpine Ski-Bindings - Selection of Release Torque Values
NATIONAL FOREWORD
This Indian Standard (First Revision) which is identical to ISO 8061 : 2019 'Alpine ski-bindings - Selection of release torque values' issued by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards on the recommendation of the Mountaineering Sectional Committee and approval of the Production and General Engineering Division Council.
Alpine bindings are traditional downhill bindings, made for alpine boots and general resort skiing. The different models depend on ski style. There are different categories that include freeride, race, all mountain, sport, and junior.
This standard was first published in 2015. The first revision has been undertaken to align it with ISO 8061.
The text of ISO standard has been approved as suitable for publication as an Indian Standard without deviations. Certain conventions are however not identical to those used in Indian Standards. Attention is particularly drawn to the following:
a) Wherever the words 'International Standard' appear referring to this standard, they should be read as 'Indian Standard'; and
b) Comma (,) has been used as a decimal marker while in Indian Standards, the current-practice is to use a point (.) as the decimal marker.
