ASTM F3018: Standard Guide for Assessment of Hard-on-Hard Articulation Total Hip Replacement and Hip Resurfacing Arthroplasty Devices

This guide describes material and design recommendations and general test methods for the assessment of implantable devices with metal-on-metal or ceramic-on-ceramic articulations intended to replace a hip joint.

Amongst others, test services evaluating the dimensional properties (such as head-to-cup clearance, articular surface roughness, sphericity, coating characterization) and physical properties (such as wear, friction, impingement, shell/cup deformation, push out strength, strength of ceramic heads) are provided. Appropriate ASTM international or ISO standards are commonly used for these analyses. EndoLab® and its partner laboratories do provide a full test series according to this standard guide.

email problems with office 365
Dear clients & partners,

Since the end of January, we have heard from some clients who use Office 365 that they are experiencing trouble receiving our emails. Our emails seem to be classified as phishing attempts and, therefore, never reach their inboxes.

If you are also waiting for a reply, please call us at +49 8031 2313230!

We look forward to hearing from you again and hopefully re-establish full communication.

The EndoLab Team
