NOTE See Bibliography for details of International Standards developed under ISO/TC I88 for components
not listed below. 6.1 Conditioning All tests of functional components shall be performed at a temperature of 20 °C ± 3 °C. 6.2 Fittings bonded to the flexible parts of the boat 6.2.1 General
The materials and method of construction used shall be compatible with that of the buoyancy tube and hull themselves. Any load-bearing fitting, attached to the boat (see 3.1 and 3.2) shall not, when loaded as described in 6.2.2, result in any impairment in airtightness or water integrity.
6.2.2 Test method
Any cordage used for test purposes shall have a diameter of 8mm. Gradually load the fittings in any direction up to the load required below and maintain this load for 1 min. a) Strong points required by ISO 15084: in accordance with that standard. b) All other attachments: up to 2 kN.
6.3 Manual lifting and carrying devices
6.3.1 Requirement Boats with a buoyancy less than 9 000 N shall be equipped with a means of carrying it. The fitting of lifting and carrying devices on boats with a buoyancy of 9 000 N or greater is optional. There shall be no failure of the device when tested as described in 6.3.2.
6.3.2 Test method
Any cordage used for test purposes shall have a diameter of 8mm. Gradually load the device with a force of 1500 N for 60 s in the appropriate directions.
Where lifting or carrying devices also function as safety ropes or grab handles, they shall also conform to the requirements of 7.9. 6.4 Valves (if applicable) 6.4.1 Inflation
The assemblies shall be made of corrosion-resistant materials and shall not be capable of damaging the boat materials. The type and arrangement of the inflation valves fitted to an inflatable boat shall ensure that:
a) the valves are readily accessible for connection of the inflation device whether the boat is on land or in the water;
b) the valves do not inconvenience the persons in their predetermined seating positions; c) the valves do not interfere with the operation of the boat; d) the valves do not interfere with loading and unloading of the boat;
