FR Recognition Number 16-179
ANSI RESNA WC-1:2009 Section 13 American National Standard for Wheelchairs - Volume 1: Requirements and Test Methods for Wheelchairs (including Scooters) Section 13: Determination of Coefficient of Friction of Test Surfaces
This section of RESNA WC-1 specifies a test method for determining the coefficient of friction of a test surface that has a rough texture, such as unfinished concrete. In the event that the test method
is used for smooth or polished surfaces, care should be exercised that the coefficient of friction is measured as being constant over the whole area of the test surface.
Several test procedures for wheelchairs, e.g., those specified in RESNA WC-1 Sec. 1, RESNA WC-2 Sec. 2, RESNA WC-2 Sec. 3, RESNA WC-2 Sec. 6 and RESNA WC-2 Sec. 10, require that
the coefficient of friction of the test surface be within specified limits.
FDA recognition of RESNA WC-1:2009 Section 13 [Rec# 16-179] will be superseded by recognition of RESNA WC-1:2019 Section 13 [Rec# 16-218]. FDA will accept declarations of conformity, in support of premarket submissions, to [Rec# 16-179] until December 25, 2020. After this transition period, declarations of conformity to [Rec# 16-179] will not be accepted.
