Link to the DIN standard?

[ISL]

Anyone know where I can find the actual DIN standards (test procedures, torque value to DIN reading conversion, etc)?

Googling for ' DIN ski binding standard ' doesn't do much that's useful. Surely there is some official PDF somewhere... ?

Thanks!

here are the files that come up when you search for "alpine ski binding"

You have to pay for the actual files, and they're stupid expensive for a 3 page pdf. I searched form ISO and JIS standards for free a while ago and never found them.

I assume you just want to adjust your own bindings..
-If you're just looking for the chart with torque numbers, just google "Din chart"
-If you want testing procedures, it's in the binding manufacturer's shop manual.

If you're trying to start a ski boot company or something more advanced, then ... hire an engineer?

Din is a bunch of standards DIN-7881 is actually what you are probably wanting to see. Winter sports equipment - Release bindings for alpine downhill-skiing - Adjustment scale for release values. It will cost you money, this is the German version of the document:
http://www.beuth.de/en/standard/din-...chID=454496464

There are a number of overviews of the standards- mainly as stated in the technical manuals for the bindings.

Thanks! I was looking for the actual standards, but my Dynafit installation manual at least has torques measured in tangible units.

I'm an experimental physicist just poking around for the standards' documentation. There must be reams of documentation leading up to the final standard's definition; is all of that behind a paywall too?

It's an ISO standard now, here's the grouping:

Note sure why "DIN" persists in language

Doesn't the release chart have actually numbers?

DIN or TUV certification only applies to alpine release values. Tech bindings have release values but to my knowledge no TUV din standard exists. The testing procedure used today if for alpine bindings.
Tech bindings do have release values that are similar using their torque release but many of the protocols do not exist in the tech world. They are not certified by TUV as of yet. They will need their own standard protocols.
Good luck
