If you look at UCS 66 the 19mm would require impact testing. The 19mm is good to -42F and the 12.5mm is good to -55F

If you do not want to inpact test you could apply the rules of UCS 68 (c) and UCS 66 (c). Hope this helps

Here's a pretty good article to help out people who are not too familiar with the rules...
