ISO 7206-10 Compression/Tensile Test on Modular Femoral Heads

The ISO 7206-10 standard specifies the requirements on the testing system for the determination of resistance to static load of modular femoral heads.

ISO 7206-10 Scope and requirements

ISO 7206-10 Implants for surgery – Partial and total hip-joint prostheses – Part 10: Determination of resistance to static load of modular femoral heads

The ISO 7206-10 standard applies to modular femoral heads with a conical connection between the femoral head and the femoral stem.
The standard specifies methods for the determination of the compression force or breaking force and the tensile force (disassembly), to cause failure of the component. ISO 7206-10 applies to metallic and non-metallic components.
To determine the compression and tensile force, a minimum of five femoral heads must be tested.

Testing to ISO 7206-10 with ZwickRoell

The tensile test and compression test are normally carried out using a universal testing machine.
To protect the operator from fragments, use of a safety device is mandatory.
The ZwickRoell testXpert III testing software allows the user to configure standard requirements as well as customized test settings.
