ASTM F3140-23 Standard Test Method for Cyclic Fatigue Testing of Metal Tibial Tray Components of Unicondylar Knee Joint Replacements |
|
Scope/Abstract1.1 This test method covers a procedure for the fatigue testing of metallic tibial trays used in partial knee joint replacements.
1.2 This test method covers the procedures for the performance of fatigue tests on metallic tibial components using a cyclic, constant-amplitude force. It applies to tibial trays which cover either the medial or the lateral plateau of the tibia.
1.3 This test method may require modifications to accommodate other tibial tray designs.
1.4 This test method is intended to provide useful, consistent, and reproducible information about the fatigue performance of metallic tibial trays with unsupported mid-section of the condyle. |

Rationale for Recognition
This standard is relevant to medical devices and is recognized on its scientific and technical merit and/or because it supports existing regulatory policies. |
|
Transition Period
FDA recognition of ASTM F3140-17 [Rec# 11-341] will be superseded by recognition of ASTM F3140-23 [Rec# 11-407]. FDA will accept declarations of conformity, in support of premarket submissions, to [Rec# 11-341] until December 21, 2025. After this transition period, declarations of conformity to [Rec# 11-341] will not be accepted. |
