This European Standard was approved by CEN on 2 October 2022.

CEN members are bound to comply with the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations which stipulate the conditions for giving this
European Standard the status of a national standard without any alteration. Up-to-date lists and bibliographical references
concerning such national standards may be obtained on application to the CEN-CENELEC Management Centre or to any CEN
member.

This European Standard exists in three official versions (English, French, German). A version in any other language made by
translation under the responsibility of a CEN member into its own language and notified to the CEN-CENELEC Management
Centre has the same status as the official versions.

1 Scope
This document specifies test methods for the determination of corrosion resistance of furniture fittings
as ready-to-use assemblies or their individual parts.
It applies to the optical assessment of surface changes for the following materials:
— metals and their alloys;
— metal coatings with anodic or cathodic properties;
— conversion coatings;
— anodic oxide layers;
— organic coatings on metallic materials.
This document does not include any requirements regarding the corrosion resistance of furniture
fittings. These can be given in the product specifications.
