19、national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. Inte
20、rnational organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with th
21、e rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval b
22、y at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 9554 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO
23、/TC 38, Textiles. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO 9554:2005), which has been technically revised. BS EN ISO 9554:2010INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 9554:2010(E) ISO 2010 All rights reserved 1Fibre ropes General specifications 1 Scope This International Standard specifies
24、the general characteristics of fibre ropes and their constituent materials. It is intended to be used in conjunction with the standards for the individual types of fibre rope, which cover the physical properties and specific requirements for that particular product type. This International Standard
25、also gives some information on the use of fibre ropes and also on their inspection and retirement criteria. This International Standard does not intend to address all of the safety matters associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user to select a rope type of the size and with the ph
26、ysical properties to meet the requirements of the application and to determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to its use. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited
27、applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. ISO 1140, Fibre ropes Polyamide 3-, 4- and 8-strand ropes ISO 1141, Fibre ropes Polyester 3-, 4- and 8-strand ropes ISO 1968, Fibre ropes and cordage Vocabulary ISO 2307, Fibre ropes De
28、termination of certain physical and mechanical properties 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in ISO 1968 apply. 4 Manufacture 4.1 Constituent materials The following materials are considered in this International Standard: a) natural fibres: si
29、sal; manila; hemp; BS EN ISO 9554:2010ISO 9554:2010(E) 2 ISO 2010 All rights reservedb) man-made fibres: polyamide; polyester; polypropylene; polyethylene; mixed polyolefin; polyester/polyolefin dual fibres; high modulus polyethylene. Typical characteristics for these materials are given in Annex A.
30、 Specific applications should involve technical discussions with rope manufacturers. 4.2 Construction and structure Unless otherwise specified, 3-, 4- and 6-strand laid ropes shall be Z-twist (right-hand lay), their strands S-twist and their roping yarns Z-twist. The 8-strand braided ropes shall con
31、sist of four S-twist strands and four Z-twist strands arranged so that S-twist strands alternate (individually or in pairs) with Z-twist strands (individually or in pairs). The 12-strand braided ropes shall consist of six S-twist strands and six Z-twist strands arranged so that S-twist strands alter
32、nate (individually or in pairs) with Z-twist strands (individually or in pairs). A double-braided rope shall consist of a number of strands that are braided to form a core, around which additional strands are braided to form a sheath. The core lies coaxially within the sheath. The number of strands
33、varies, based upon the size of the rope. A parallel rope construction consists of a number of sub-ropes protected by a non-load-bearing cover. Each strand shall consist of an equal number of rope yarns sufficient to provide the characteristics specified in the International Standard for the relevant
34、 product. For ropes of reference number 36 or higher, the number of yarns in each strand may differ by one yarn or 2,5 % from the intended number of yarns in the strand. The ropes and their strands shall be continuous, without splice for standard delivered lengths or shorter lengths. Yarns may be jo
35、ined as necessary. The strands can be assembled yarns as well. NOTE National legislations can place additional requirements concerning rope construction. 4.3 Treatment 4.3.1 Polyamide and polyester ropes 4.3.1.1 Polyamide and polyester laid ropes that are required to have a heat setting on the rope
36、to ensure lay and dimensional stability are designated as type 1 ropes in ISO 1140 and ISO 1141. 4.3.1.2 In other cases, polyamide and polyester laid ropes that are not required to have a heat setting on the rope are designated as type 2 ropes in ISO 1140 and ISO 1141.

37、10(E) ISO 2010 All rights reserved 34.3.1.3 The ropes shall be supplied in their natural state without additives to weight the rope or coating treatment. The fibre producer or the rope manufacturer may apply lubricants for enhanced performance. The total amount of additives or extractable materials
38、shall not exceed 2,5 % in mass. 4.3.1.4 The colour of the rope shall be natural, unless otherwise requested. Upon request of the purchaser, the manufacturer may use a coating or impregnation of the product for special applications. 4.3.1.5 The figures for linear density and minimum breaking force in
39、 ISO 1140 and in ISO 1141 are the same for type 1 and type 2 ropes. 4.3.2 Polypropylene and polyethylene ropes Polypropylene and polyethylene ropes shall be protected against deterioration due to sunlight (UV). The inhibiting system used should ensure the expected performance in usage under the fore
40、seen geographical areas for applications, provided that the manufacturer is kept informed by the user. 4.3.3 Manila and sisal 4.3.3.1 General All ropes of manila and of sisal shall be made exclusively of new fibres. 4.3.3.2 Manila A cordage oil lubricant of suitable quality shall be applied. The lub
41、ricant shall not impart an offensive odour to the finished rope. The percentage of extractable matter based on the dry weight of the rope shall not be less than 11,5 % nor more than 16,5 %. When specified, the rope shall have a mildew-resistant treatment. Anti-bacterial additives for manila may be a
42、dded to extend the performance of the natural fibre when requested by the purchaser. 4.3.3.3 Sisal A cordage oil lubricant of suitable quality shall be applied. The lubricant shall not impart an offensive odour to the finished rope. The percentage of extractable matter based on the dry weight of the
43、 rope shall not be more than 11,5 % for an un-oiled product and not more than 16,5 % for an oiled product. When specified, the rope shall be free from any oils and sold as un-oiled rope. Anti-bacterial additives for sisal may be added to extend the performance of the natural fibre when requested by
44、the purchaser. 4.4 Workmanship 4.4.1 The finished rope shall contain no cuts, kinks or soft spots caused by change in lay or pitch length, hockles, chafed or damaged sections, or broken, loose or projecting ends in the rope or the strands. 4.4.2 The unspliced ends of all ropes shall be cut off squar
45、ely and shall be securely whipped, taped or heat-sealed. BS EN ISO 9554:2010ISO 9554:2010(E) 4 ISO 2010 All rights reserved5 Lay length or braid pitch The manufacturer shall establish the lay length or the braid pitch of the rope according to its intended use, or based upon the purchasers acceptance
46、. NOTE For a given reference number of rope, the smaller the lay length or braid pitch the harder the rope will be; this hardness can affect the estimated breaking strength of the rope. 6 Requirements The main requirements shall be those specified in the relevant International Standard for the produ
47、ct and shall include the following: a) linear density; b) minimum breaking force; c) reference number. The corresponding test methods are specified in ISO 2307. Other requirements, for example the lay length, the braid pitch, the diameter of the circumscribed circle, and the elongation of the rope u
48、nder specific tensile conditions, may be specified, subject to agreement between the manufacturer and the purchaser, where applicable with the submission of a sample. 7 Marking and labelling 7.1 Marking 7.1.1 General The identification of the material, quality and origin of a fibre rope conforming t
49、o this International Standard shall be marked using a tape placed within the article (see 7.1.3) so as to remain recognizable despite soiling, soaking or discoloration during use.
