ASTM F3210M – Standard Test Method for Fatigue Testing of Total Knee Femoral Components Under Closing Conditions

1.1”This standard applies to metallic total knee femoral components used in total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Femoral components made of nonmetallic materials (for example, ceramic, polymer) could possibly be evaluated using this test method. However, such materials may include risks of new failure mechanisms which are not considered in this test method.
