Full title and description
ISO 9903-1:2003 — Textile machinery and accessories — Main dimensions for section wires for metallic card clothing — Part 1: Foot without interlocking or interchaining. This part specifies the main dimensions for section wires used in metallic card clothing when the foot profile has no interlocking or interchaining.
Abstract
Defines the principal geometric dimensions and designation conventions for section wires (profile wires) for metallic card clothing with a non‑interlocking, non‑interchaining foot profile, to ensure interchangeability and compatibility between manufacturers and users of carding components.

Scope
This part of ISO 9903 specifies the main dimensions for section wires for metallic card clothing where the wire foot/profile is without interlocking or interchaining. It is intended to give manufacturers and users a common set of dimensional references (profiles, foot geometry and basic designation) so that section wires and assembled metallic card clothing are compatible across suppliers. Normative references used by this part include general definitions for metallic card clothing (for example ISO 5234).
Key topics and requirements
- Definition of the foot/profile geometry for section wires with non‑interlocking, non‑interchaining feet.
- Main dimensional tables and symbols for profile design and designation.
- Designation rules to identify section wire type and size to support interchangeability.
- Reference to terms and definitions for metallic card clothing (normative references such as ISO 5234).
- Guidance to manufacturers on drawing and specifying section wires for card clothing assemblies.
Typical use and users
Used by manufacturers of metallic card clothing and section/profile wires, textile machinery designers, procurement and quality engineers in spinning and carding operations, and standards/technical committees working on textile‑machinery components. The standard supports compatibility when replacing or specifying card clothing components in carding machines.
Related standards
Directly related documents include ISO 9903-2:2003 (Part 2 — main dimensions for section wires with interchaining feet) and the earlier withdrawn ISO 9903:1991 (which was replaced by the 2003 two‑part series). ISO 5234 (Metallic card cloth — terms and definitions) is a normative reference for terminology.

FAQ
Q: What is this standard?
A: ISO 9903-1:2003 is an international standard that specifies the main dimensions and designation conventions for section wires used in metallic card clothing when the foot profile has no interlocking or interchaining.
Q: What does it cover?
A: It covers the principal geometric dimensions, designation rules and associated references for section/profile wires with a non‑interlocking, non‑interchaining foot, to enable consistent specification and interchangeability between suppliers and users.
Q: Who typically uses it?
A: Manufacturers of metallic card clothing and profile/section wires, textile machinery designers and maintenance teams, procurement and quality personnel in spinning and carding operations, and standards committees in the textile machinery sector.
Q: Is it current or superseded?
A: ISO 9903-1:2003 replaced the earlier ISO 9903:1991 as part of a two‑part revision in 2003. According to ISO’s lifecycle records the 2003 parts were reviewed and the publication was confirmed in 2024, so the 2003 edition remains current (confirmed).
Q: Is it part of a series?
A: Yes — it is Part 1 of the ISO 9903 series (Part 2 is ISO 9903-2:2003, which addresses section wires with interchaining feet); together they superseded ISO 9903:1991.
