Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 10862 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 188, Small craft, in collaboration with Technical
Committee CEN/TC 162, Protective clothing including hand and arm protection and lifejackets, in accordance
with the Agreement on technical cooperation between ISO and CEN (Vienna Agreement).

Introduction
Many people actively participate in small craft sailing with little evidence of accident, injury or death.
Statistically, sailing is one of the safer leisure activities. There are, however, a very few documented accounts
of injury and death owing to a participant being entrapped underwater as a result of not being able to detach
themselves from the craft and, in some cases, not being able to release themselves from a sailing-craft
trapeze.
This International Standard has been developed jointly by recreational-craft user groups and industry in an
endeavour to reduce the possibility of entrapment underwater as a result of the inability of the user to release
from a sailing-craft trapeze.
The scope of this International Standard is intentionally restricted and only covers the functioning of the safety
release device of small sailing-craft trapeze systems. When developing this International Standard,
ISO/TC 188/WG 14 emphasized that the safety of a craft and her entire management is the sole responsibility
of the person in charge, who will also ensure that the craft and crew are adequate to face the conditions that
might arise in the course of use. The establishment of this International Standard in no way limits or reduces
the absolute responsibility of the person in charge and their responsibility for the crew, the craft and the
management thereof.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 10862:2009(E)

Small craft — Quick release system for trapeze harness
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies requirements and test methods for quick release devices as a
component of the small sailing-craft trapeze system worn whilst afloat. The quick release device is intended to
quickly release the wearer from entrapment and minimize the risk of drowning in the event of a failure to
release from the sailing-craft trapeze system by other means.
The quick release device is intended to be easily accessible and operated in all conditions that might occur
whilst in use, including when a craft is capsized or inverted.
2 Normative references
The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated
references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced
document (including any amendments) applies.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
sailing-craft trapeze system
system of sailing-craft equipment and/or devices attached to a craft and user which can be used to support
the main body mass of that user, thereby enabling an increase in the righting moment (through their body
mass) on the craft
3.2
user's attachment point
point to which the trapeze system tensile load is applied and which connects and disconnects the user to and
from the craft when the system is in normal use
3.3
release attachment point
point to which the trapeze system tensile load is applied and from which the user is released from the craft
when the release system is activated
NOTE In any particular trapeze system, the release attachment point might be the same as, or may be additional to,
the user's attachment point.

3.8
harness
textile assembly worn by the user, to which is attached that part of the user main attachment fitting that

manufacturer's specified operational mass range
range specified by the manufacturer giving the user's minimum and maximum operational mass (the mass of

4.1 General
The quick release device design shall have the aim of releasing the user from the craft main attachment fitting
within 5 s.
The quick release device shall be simple to use and capable of operation with one gloved hand. Operation of
the quick release device shall not present any significant risk to the user.
After all the tests described in Clause 5 have been carried out, the quick release device shall still be capable
of correct operation and releasing the user from the main attachment fitting within 5 s.
User and craft main attachment fittings may or may not be exclusively-compatible with each other.
Exclusively-compatible main attachment fittings shall only be used together and shall not be used with other
designs. Non-exclusively-compatible main attachment fittings are not exclusive to each other, i.e. the user
main attachment fitting (hereinafter referred to as “user attachment fitting”) may be used with the craft main
attachment fitting (hereinafter referred to as “craft attachment fitting”) of a common design similar in shape
