ASTM F2128-13 PDF Download

Procedures for determining whether climbing treestands, ladder treestands, and tripods can resist repeated loading with respect to the manufacturer's rated capacity are outlined in the ASTM F2128-13 standard. Instead of being utilized as an independent material or product-acceptance test, the standard is largely employed for quality assurance and production control purposes.

This test method's goal is to confirm that treestands can withstand repeated loading during regular use and that they comply with the appropriate safety standards. It highlights the significance of testing treestands to establish their durability and capability in actual conditions while acknowledging that individual usage patterns may differ greatly.
