This document defines the procedures for classifying, testing and labelling of cartridges for powder actuated tools (PAT cartridges), as defined in Clause 3 of this document. This document applies to PAT cartridges which are all classified as P1. This document does not apply to pyrotechnic articles containing blasting agents and military explosives except black powder and flash composition. PAT cartridges contain pyrotechnic composition(s) delivering mainly gases, intended to propel a piston. The piston propels fasteners (e.g. nails) or drives hard marking characters into appropriate materials. This document also applies to PAT cartridges sold to persons younger than 18 years, if this is permitted by the Member State due to the low hazard of the PAT cartridges. NOTE PAT cartridges can also be used for hard marking tools. Information on cartridge operated fixing and hard marking tools can be found in EN 15895:2025 [1]. This document applies to the cartridges listed in Table 1. Table 1 — Lists of the established calibres for PAT cartridges
