Objection to
the Wikipedia Authors
of Body Piercing Material
The
section on Stainless Steels in the Wikipedia article Body Piercing Materials
should be removed
because it falsely claims that ASTM F138-316L (a/k/a as 316LVM) is the standard
initial body piercing material.
Reference is made to
1) scholarly literature on stainless steels will show that factory grade 316L is
a surgical stainless steel deemed safe for implanting in the body;
2) biomaterials publications show that factory grade 316L used in the
application of body piercing is biocompatible, safe for human implant use;
3) the largest standard setting organization, ASTM, describes their syandard
F-138 316L as meeting all necessary qualities to be used as a safe metal for
surgical implants;
4) Unimax Supply Co Inc, as one of the oldest suppliers to the body piercing trade
in the USA that 316LVM F138 is rarely used compared to the millions of pieces of
316L showing 316L is the standard in the body piercing industry in the USA.
5) The World Trade Organization (WTO) principles for determining rational
voluntary standards when applied to the replacing of 316L with F138 316LVM shows
it cannot be justified.
6) the errors and unsubstantiated statements will be exposed that will show
there is not a single support fpor replacing 316L with F138316L.
These six areas will support the contention that safe and effective usage of non-F138-certified 316L proves its merit in the application of body piercing and that switching from 316L to F138 offers no increase in benefits for the consumer nor any advantage for piercers.
The views expressed in the Wikipedia article have no merit.
