According to the mandatory requirements of China's "National Toy Safety Technical Specifications" GB6675, the testing process for metal toy cars can be summarized as follows:
I. Preparation before testing
1. Select a testing agency
A third-party testing agency with China's CNAS qualifications must be selected.
2. Data preparation
- Business license, product manual, design drawings;
- Material list (must specify metal type, surface coating composition, etc.);
- Sample information (model, applicable age, etc.).
II. Testing process steps
1. Application and data submission
Submit an application form and related materials to the testing agency to clarify the scope of testing (such as GB6675.2 mechanical properties, GB6675.4 heavy metal migration, etc.).
2. Sample delivery requirements
- Provide 2-3 unopened metal toy car samples;
- The sample must include complete packaging, accessories and instructions.
3. Laboratory test items
- Physical and mechanical properties (GB6675.2):
Sharp edge test, small parts (such as wheels, screws) anti-swallowing test, tension/pressure test, etc.
- Combustion performance (GB6675.3):
Evaluate the flame retardancy of metal surface coatings or plastic parts.
- Migration of specific elements (GB6675.4):
Detect the dissolution of 8 heavy metals such as lead, cadmium, and mercury, focusing on metal materials and surface coatings.
- Phthalate ester test (plasticizer):
If it contains plastic accessories (such as steering wheels, seats), 6 phthalates need to be tested.
4. Report preparation and review
The laboratory prepares a report based on the test data and issues a certificate of conformity after the review is passed.
III. Testing cycle and precautions
1. Cycle: Usually 5-7 working days, complex projects may be extended.
2. Sample requirements: If problems are found during the test (such as sharp edges exceeding the standard), they need to be corrected and re-sent.
3. Other certifications:
- If the toy car contains batteries or electric parts, additional 3C certification and electric toy safety testing (GB19865) are required.
- Export products need to be supplemented with tests in accordance with the standards of the target country (such as EU EN71, US ASTM F963).
Summary
Metal toy cars need to pass three core tests: physical properties, chemical safety, and combustion performance. The process covers application, sample delivery, laboratory testing, and report issuance. It is recommended that companies communicate with the testing agency in advance about the material details to increase the one-time pass rate.
