Overview
EN 12654-3:1998 - Textile glass - Yarns - Part 3: General requirements for general applications (adopted as SIST EN 12654-3:2000) is a European Standard published by CEN that sets out the baseline requirements for textile glass yarns intended for general-purpose uses. The standard defines the scope and deliverables for manufacturers, suppliers and users of glass fibre yarns and is classified under ICS 59.100.10 (materials from glass fibres).
Key topics and requirements
This part of EN 12654 focuses on general, cross-cutting requirements rather than application-specific parameters. Typical technical topics covered include:
- Product definition and scope - what constitutes textile glass yarns for general applications.
- Physical and dimensional characteristics - core attributes that yarns must meet for consistency and interchangeability.
- Sizing and surface treatment - requirements affecting handling, processability and compatibility with matrices.
- Packaging, labelling and marking - instructions for identification, traceability and safe storage.
- Quality control and conformity - expectations for inspection, acceptance criteria and documentation.
- Reference to test methods - identifying or linking to appropriate test standards for verifying yarn properties.
Note: EN 12654-3 establishes general requirements; specific numeric limits, test procedures or performance classes are handled in accompanying parts or test method standards.
Applications
EN 12654-3 is relevant wherever glass fibre yarns are used as a raw material or intermediate product, including:
- Reinforced plastics and composite manufacturing
- Textile glass fabric production and conversion
- Filament winding, braiding and weaving operations
- Automotive, marine, construction and electrical insulation components where general-purpose glass yarns are specified
Using the standard helps ensure material consistency, improve supply chain communication and reduce quality disputes.
Who uses this standard
- Manufacturers of glass fibre yarns and sizings
- Procurement and quality engineers specifying raw materials
- Composite fabricators and converters requiring consistent yarn inputs
- Testing laboratories and conformity assessors
- Standards bodies and regulatory agencies referencing harmonized European requirements
Related standards
- Other parts of the EN 12654 series (application-specific requirements)
- CEN/CENELEC standards on glass fibre testing, sizing compatibility and composite materials
- National adoptions (e.g., SIST EN 12654-3:2000 in Slovenia)
