Overview

EN 60264-2-1:1994 (adopted as SIST EN 60264-2-1:2001) is a CLC/CENELEC standard that specifies the basic dimensions for cylindrical barrelled delivery spools used for packaging winding wires. The document defines dimensional parameters and conventions that support interchangeability, consistent handling, and automated processing of spools for electrical and industrial wire products.

Key topics and requirements

The standard focuses on dimensional and packaging-related elements for cylindrical barrelled delivery spools. Primary technical topics include:

  • Basic spool geometry - core (barrel) length, barrel diameter and the relationship with flange/profile shapes.
  • Bore and hub features - central bore sizes and mounting interfaces for machine loading and spindle fitting.
  • Flange and overhang considerations - flange diameter, clearances and form factors affecting stacking and storage.
  • Nominal sizes and designation - consistent naming or coding conventions to identify spool dimensions.
  • Compatibility and interchangeability - ensuring spools fit common winding, dispensing and transport equipment.
  • Reference scope and classification - designation under ICS codes (29.060.10 Wires; 55.060 Spools/Bobbins).

Note: EN 60264-2-1 covers basic dimensions rather than material specifications or manufacturing methods; it sets geometric standards to support downstream processes.

Applications and who uses this standard

EN 60264-2-1 is used across the wire and winding industries where consistent spool sizing matters:

  • Winding wire manufacturers - to package products for safe delivery and machine-ready dispensing.
  • Spool and bobbin producers - to design and produce standardized cylindrical barrelled delivery spools.
  • Motor, transformer and coil manufacturers - to ensure spools are compatible with automated winding equipment.
  • Procurement and quality assurance - to specify acceptance criteria for incoming wire reels and packaging.
  • Logistics and storage planners - to optimize stacking, transport, and inventory management using standardized spool sizes.

Practical benefits include improved machine compatibility, reduced downtime from misfit spools, streamlined inventory and simplified supplier specifications.

Related standards

  • Part of the EN/IEC 60264 series addressing packaging of winding wires; EN 60264-2-1 specifically covers cylindrical barrelled delivery spools - basic dimensions.
  • Adopted nationally as SIST EN 60264-2-1:2001 (Slovenia).
