FIBERGLASS CONTINUOUS FILAMENT TEXTURIZING YARNS FOR THE WEAVING INDUSTRY
I.
DESCRIPTION
Fiberglass yarn is a natural, lustrous, white, continuous filament yarn that is evenly twisted on
supply packages. The yarns are smooth, non-cellular and generally cylindrical in form. The
yarns are made of glass of high stability and durability and are with the exception of sizing
ingredients, inorganic, incombustible and will neither expand nor contract with moisture
changes. The glass composition meets the certification for “E” glass as defined by ASTM’s D
578-00 Standards Specification for Glass Fiber Strands. The individual glass fibers do not
tend to absorb moisture and are extremely flexible. The sizing may be burned off the yarn
under certain conditions. Weathering tests have indicated comparatively unlimited stability
under repeated cycles of heat, cold, sunlight, dampness and drying. These yarns are sized
with a special texturizing size designated as 602.
II.
USE
These yarns are designed to permit further fabrication that will result in texturized yarns.

Throughout history, the actual yardage or tex of yarn products has often been shifted from the
actual yield provided in the product name. Therefore, the yarn name is only used as a descriptor.
The table in section V. must be utilized to obtain the actual bare glass yield of a yarn product.
