Introduction
What is a toe cap?
A toe cap is a part incorporated underneath the upper of footwear intended to provide protection against mechnical impact and compression. 

Requirements for toe caps
1. Finishing
Toe caps shall be finished so as to be free from surface marks or defects and shall be free from burrs and sharp edges and defects of splitting or delaminating between material layers.

2. Internal Length
Toe cap number 5 and below   6                7                8                9           10 and above
Minimum internal length in millimeters 34 36 38 39 40 42

3. Width of flange
If toe caps are formed with a flange, the inside width of the flange (e) shall be not greater than 10mm, as shown in below figure. 


4. Impact Resistance
When toe caps are tested at an energy level of either (100 ± 2) J ( toe caps intended for protective footwear), or (200 ± 4) J ( toe caps intended for safety footwear), the clearance under the cap at the moment of impact shall be not less than the appropriate valume required. In addition the toe cap shall not develop sharp edges or any cracks passing through the material.

5. Compression Resistance
When toe caps are tested, the clearance under the toe cap at a compression load of either (10 ± 0.1) kN (toe caps intended for protective footwear) or (15 ± 0.15) kN (toe caps intended for safety footwear) shall not be less than the appropriate value required. In addition the toe cap shall not develop sharp edges or any cracks passing through the material.

 
Toe cap number 5 and below     6                 7                   8                   9             10 and above
Internal toe cap min. clearance (mm) 19.5 20.0 20.5 21.0 21.5 22.0
Note: min. clearance under toe caps at impact and compression

6. Corrosion Resistance
For metal toe caps only. 

7. Impact resistance after five environmental treatments
When non-metal toe caps are subject to each single one of the treatments (high temperature, low temperature, acid, alkali, fuel oil), and thereafter go on the impact test, the clearance under the toe cap at the moment of impact shall be not less than the appropriate valume given above. In addition the toe cap shall not develop sharp edges or any cracks passing through the material.
1. Composite toe caps are lighter than steel, or FRP caps
2. Better Electrical Resistance
3. Excellent Corrosion Resistance
4. Great Compression & Impact Resistance
