ISO 366-1-1988 PDF

Full title and description

Textile machinery and accessories — Reeds — Part 1: Pitch bound reeds — Dimensions. This International Standard specifies dimensional requirements for pitch-bound reeds used in weaving and related textile machinery.

Abstract

This part of ISO 366 specifies the dimensions of pitch bound reeds for use in the textile industry. It replaces ISO 366:1982 and is a minor revision of that earlier edition.

General information

• Status: Withdrawn (listed as withdrawn in the ISO catalogue).
• Publication date: January 1988 (publication listed as 1988-01; commercial catalogue entries give 21 January 1988 as the publication date).
• Publisher: International Organization for Standardization (ISO).
• ICS / categories: 59.120.30 (Looms; weaving machines).
• Edition / version: Edition 1 (1988).
• Number of pages: 2 (short technical specification).

Scope

This standard defines the dimensional characteristics for pitch-bound reeds — the type of reed assembled from bound dents — used in textile weaving machines. It covers the principal sizes and designation rules necessary for interchangeability and production of these reeds; other reed types are covered in the other parts of the ISO 366 series.

Key topics and requirements

• Dimensional specifications for pitch-bound reed components (lengths, pitches, dent spacing and related nominal sizes).
• Designation and identification conventions to ensure consistent ordering and interchangeability of reeds.
• Reference to related parts of ISO 366 for other reed constructions (metal plate baulk, double-spring baulk, plastic-bound, etc.).
• Replacement of the earlier ISO 366:1982 metric reed dimensions (minor revisions to align industry practice).
• Short, prescriptive format intended for manufacturers and technical purchasers rather than extended normative guidance.

Typical use and users

Used by reed manufacturers, textile machinery designers, maintenance teams in weaving mills, procurement/specification engineers, and national standards bodies when specifying or producing pitch-bound reeds for looms and related equipment. The standard is primarily a dimensional reference for production and procurement.

Related standards

Part of the ISO 366 series (other parts cover metal reeds with plate baulk, double-spring baulk, plastic-bound reeds and profile capsules). ISO 366-2, ISO 366-3 and later parts provide dimensions/designation rules for other reed types; related references include ISO publications on strip steel for dents of reeds (for example ISO 9473 series).

FAQ

Q: What is this standard?

A: ISO 366-1:1988 is the International Standard that specified dimensions and designation rules for pitch-bound reeds used in textile weaving machinery.

Q: What does it cover?

A: It covers the dimensional requirements (pitches, dent spacing and related nominal sizes) and designation conventions for pitch-bound reeds; other reed constructions are addressed in other parts of ISO 366.

Q: Who typically uses it?

A: Reed manufacturers, loom designers, textile mill maintenance and procurement engineers, and standards/technical committees involved in textile machinery specifications.

Q: Is it current or superseded?

A: ISO lists ISO 366-1:1988 as Withdrawn. National catalogues and standards bodies show withdrawal/withdrawn-from-sale dates (for example some national repositories list withdrawal around 2017–2019); users should consult the ISO catalogue or their national standards body for the current applicable document or replacement guidance.

Q: Is it part of a series?

A: Yes — it is Part 1 of the ISO 366 series (other parts address metal reeds with plate baulk, double-spring baulk, plastic-bound reeds, profile capsules, etc.).

Q: What are the key keywords?

A: Reeds; pitch bound; textile machinery; loom; dimensions; ISO 366.
