Full title and description

ISO 10122:2014 — Reinforcement materials — Tubular braided sleeves — Basis for a specification. This international standard provides the basis for preparing product specifications for tubular braided sleeves used as reinforcements in plastics; it applies to sleeves braided from all types of yarn or roving and describes designation, characteristics, sampling, conditioning, test methods and packaging/ordering information.

Abstract

ISO 10122:2014 gives a concise framework for specifying tubular braided sleeves for composite reinforcement applications. It identifies the characteristics that should be specified (for example thickness, diameter, braid angle, mass per metre), lists defects, outlines sampling and conditioning procedures and specifies test methods and packaging/ordering information.

Scope

The standard provides a basis for specifications applicable to tubular braided sleeves used as reinforcements in plastics. It applies to tubular sleeves braided from any type of yarn or roving and is intended to ensure consistent description, testing and ordering of these reinforcement products. It does not replace detailed material specifications where specific performance properties are required, but forms the structural basis for such specifications.

Key topics and requirements

• Description and designation: how to describe sleeve construction and apply a clear designation system.
• Characteristics to be specified: thickness, diameter, braid angle, mass per metre length and other agreed characteristics.
• Defects: definition and classification of defects relevant to tubular braided sleeves.
• Sampling and conditioning: procedures for sampling production lots and conditioning specimens prior to testing.
• Test methods: prescribed tests (examples include measurement of thickness, diameter, braid angle, mass per metre) and how results are reported.
• Packaging and ordering: recommended information to include when ordering and guidelines for packaging to preserve product integrity.

Typical use and users

Primary users are composite-material specifiers, manufacturers of tubular braided sleeves (textile and composite reinforcement producers), composite part manufacturers and procurement teams who need standardized product descriptions. Test laboratories, standards writers and quality assurance personnel in the plastics and composites industries also use the standard when creating product specifications or verifying supplied material against contractual requirements.

Related standards

ISO 10122:2014 is related to other reinforcement and textile-material standards that address yarns, rovings and testing methods. Standards commonly referenced alongside it include ISO 2797 (rovings), ISO 3598 (yarns), ISO 8516 (textured yarns), ISO 4603 (fabric thickness), ISO 291 (conditioning atmospheres) and other test-method and material-basis standards used for composite reinforcements. These related documents help define test procedures and material descriptions used in conjunction with ISO 10122:2014.

FAQ

Q: What is this standard?

A: ISO 10122:2014 is an international standard that gives the basis for product specifications for tubular braided sleeves used as reinforcements in plastics and composite materials.

Q: What does it cover?

A: It covers description and designation of sleeves, characteristics that should be specified (thickness, diameter, braid angle, mass per metre, etc.), defects, sampling and conditioning procedures, test methods for key dimensions and properties, and packaging/ordering information.

Q: Who typically uses it?

A: Composite manufacturers, reinforcement (textile) producers, procurement and QA teams, materials test laboratories and standards writers who need a consistent basis for defining and testing tubular braided sleeves.

Q: Is it current or superseded?

A: ISO 10122:2014 is the current edition (Edition 2, 2014). The 2014 edition superseded ISO 10122:1995, and the ISO entry shows the 2014 edition as published and reviewed/confirmed in a recent review cycle. Users should check national body listings or ISO for the latest confirmation or revisions.

Q: Is it part of a series?

A: It is part of the broader family of ISO standards addressing reinforcement materials and textile-based reinforcements (standards on rovings, yarns, woven fabrics and related test methods). It is maintained under ISO/TC 61/SC 13 and is commonly used alongside other material- and test-method standards for composite reinforcements.

Q: What are the key keywords?

A: Tubular braided sleeve; reinforcement materials; braid angle; thickness; mass per metre; sampling; conditioning; test methods; packaging; designation.
