U.S. Stroller CPC Certification ASTM F833 Standard

Views :
Update time : 2025-02-24

ASTM F833 is a standard issued by ASTM International (American Society for Testing and Materials) that specifies safety performance requirements for strollers and carriages. The purpose of this standard is to ensure that strollers comply with safety regulations during design, manufacturing, and usage, reducing potential hazards to children. JJR Laboratory, an ISO/IEC 17025 accredited laboratory, provides ASTM F833 standard testing services—feel free to contact us for inquiries.

 

U.S. Stroller CPC Certification ASTM F833 Standard(图1)


Amazon Requirements for Strollers

According to Amazon's requirements, all carriages and strollers must undergo testing and comply with the following specific regulations and standards:

 

Mandatory Requirements:

1. Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA) (Lead & Phthalates);

2. 16 CFR Part 1130 – Consumer Registration Requirements for Durable Infant and Toddler Products;

3. Section 14(a)(5) of the Consumer Product Safety Act (CPSA) – Tracking Labels.

 

At Least One of the Following Standards Must Be Met:

1. ASTM F833-21 – Standard Consumer Safety Performance Specification for Carriages and Strollers;

2. 16 CFR Part 1227 – Safety Standard for Carriages and Strollers.

 

Applicable Products:

Covers all types of strollers, including:

- Lightweight strollers

- Double strollers

- Jogging strollers

- Accessories such as canopies and cup holders

 

ASTM F833-21 Testing Standards for Strollers

1. Stability Test

Ensures the stroller does not tip over on slopes of 10°, 12°, and 15° under different weight conditions.

 

2. Safety Harness Strength

- Five-point harness must withstand at least 200N of force.

- Buckles must not accidentally release.

 

3. Dynamic Durability Test

- Wheels must pass a 72,000-cycle endurance test (simulating approximately 3 years of use) without structural failure.

 

4. Folding Mechanism Lock

- Dual-action unlocking mechanism required (e.g., press + slide) to prevent accidental folding and injury.

 

5. Small Parts & Gaps

- No removable small parts (e.g., decorations less than 3 cm in diameter).

- Gaps must be less than 7mm or greater than 12mm to prevent finger entrapment.

 

ASTM F833-21 Material Restrictions

1. Plastic components must comply with Phthalates (6P) and Lead content tests (≤90ppm).

2. Fabric must meet flammability standards (16 CFR 1610).

 

ASTM F833 serves as a critical benchmark for manufacturers, retailers, and consumers in evaluating stroller safety. Products that meet this standard are generally considered highly safe and reliable. The standard outlines performance requirements, test methods, and labeling requirements for stability, braking systems, restraint systems, locks, folding mechanisms, structural integrity, cords, wheel separation, and entrapment risks, effectively addressing potential hazards associated with strollers.
