New draft standards for vehicles in China
China published for comments several new draft standards for road vehicles.
China recently published four new draft standards for road vehicles. They are open for comments until 5 January 2021. The standards are:
GB 9656—202X – Safety Technical Specification for Glazing Materials Used in Power-driven Vehicles
GB17675—202X – Steering System of Motor Vehicles–Basic Requirements
GB 26512—XXXX – The Protection of the Occupants in the Cab of Commercial Vehicles
GB XXXXX—XXXX – Automobiles and Trailer-Specifications and Test Methods of Brake Parts
Whereas the first three standards are new versions of existing ones, the last one seems to be a completely new standard and not to have a preceding version. It is supposed to specify the terms and definitions, test related requirements, technical requirements and test methods, packaging and marking, and product consistency of brake replacement parts such as brake linings, brake shoe assemblies, pad assemblies, brake drums and brake discs, etc. for automobile and trailer brake systems.
