JLA is a “self-declaration type” framework that aims to clarify the compatible classes JLA-450 / JLA-425 (space bar length x stabilizer fulcrum span) of the Japanese layout bottom row as a shared language, and to promote the distribution of replacement parts and long-term support.
Individual product examinations are not conducted.
Participation Steps (Shortest)
- Submit the required information via the online application form (at the end of this page).
- Greenkeys (adjustment contact) will contact you regarding publication approval and notation confirmation.
- Registry listing (based on public agreement). Corrections will be made as needed.
- The “JLA-450” and “JLA-425” notation and badge can be used on your company’s website/product page.
Requirements for Self-Declaration
- JLA-450: Approximately 4.5u space bar length x approximately 70mm stabilizer fulcrum span
- JLA-425: Approximately 4.25u space bar length x approximately 60mm stabilizer fulcrum span
- Internal mechanisms, materials, and fixing methods are not questioned (each company’s know-how). Only the “position of the fulcrum (dimensions)” is shared.
- Split spaces (e.g., 2.25u+2.25u, etc.) are not covered (separate category)—not discouraged, but not covered by this alliance.
