scope:

ISO 10256-3:202x specifies performance requirements and test methods for face and eye protectors (visors) for use in ice hockey. It is intended to be used in conjunction with ISO 10256-1:202x and ISO 10256-2:202x.

Requirements and the corresponding test methods, where appropriate, are given for the following:

a) materials and construction;

b) design;

c) protected area (coverage);

d) penetration resistance (test blade);

e) puck impact resistance;

f) optical quality;

g) test report;

h) markings; and

i) information for users.

This part of ISO 10256 applies to face and eye protectors worn by

- ice hockey players (not goaltenders except where ISO 10256-4:202x references this Standard), and

- referees.
