TS EN 61067-1

TS EN 61067-1 is the Turkish adoption of the standard that deals with definitions, classification and general requirements for woven continuous-filament tapes made from glass fibres or from a combination of glass and polyester fibres. It identifies the technical framework for loomstate tapes produced on conventional or shuttless looms and gives the product family a common vocabulary.

In general technical context, woven tapes of this kind are textile structures made from continuous filaments and used in electrical and industrial applications where insulation, binding, reinforcement or interlayer separation may be needed. Glass fibre is widely valued for heat resistance and dimensional stability, while polyester fibres can contribute to handling and mechanical behaviour in blended constructions. The standard’s role is to organise this material family into a consistent terminology and classification scheme.

Why the terminology and classification matter

A document of this type helps ensure that manufacturers, suppliers and users describe the same material in the same way. It clarifies the basic identity of the tape, the fibre composition and the broad product category, which is essential when comparing specifications, ordering materials or referencing technical documentation across organisations.

Product family covered by this standard

• Tapes woven on conventional or shuttless looms
• Loomstate woven tapes made from continuous filaments
• Structures made solely from glass fibres
• Structures made from a combination of glass and polyester fibres

The scope defines a particular woven-tape material family and its general framework; it does not, by itself, establish detailed end-use performance claims or application-specific selection rules. Even so, it serves as an important reference point for the technical classification of glass-based woven tapes.
