Re: Elastic?

FayeMaloneDesigns: you seem so up and up on the info! Could you help me with my question? My baby-toddler snap belts are made with woven elastic, Kamsnaps resin snaps and the ID ones also have a stainless steel tag. Do my belts require testing (which would mean bye-bye baby belts) or are they exempt? Thanks so much and not trying to hijack the thread!!!

Re: Elastic?

The elastic is exempt from testing.

Get a certificate of testing from Kamsnaps for their testing.

Stainless steel, you need to find out what kind from the maker of the Stainless. If not you will have to test. Excerpt form the final interpretive rule on Stainless.

"Stainless steel is a generic name for corrosion23
resistant steel alloys. Typically, the manufacturing
process for stainless steel uses recycled scrap as well as
"virgin" (newly refined) steel, yet the manufacturing
process heats the steel to temperatures high enough to
vaporize any lead and lead oxide present. Once the steel
melts, the mix is subjected to a vacuum, and the lead/lead
oxide gases are drawn off for condensation and recycling.
Consequently, the manufacture of stainless steels results
in alloys with lead concentrations less than 100 ppm.
However, we found that one stainless steel alloy, designated as 303Pb, does contain lead. The concentration of lead in 303Pb stainless steel is between 0.12% and 0.30%
(1200 to 3000 ppm) . The Unified Numbering System
designation for 303Pb steel is S30360. Thus, 303Pb
stainless steel is excluded from any determination for
stainless steel. The Commission has revised proposed §
1500.91 (d) (1) (now renumbered as § 1500.91 (e) (1) to add
"other stainless steel within the designations of Unified Numbering System, UNS S13800 -S66286, not including the stainless steel designated as 303Pb (UNS S30360) ,"
