Overview

EN 61249-2-19:2002 specifies requirements for epoxide cross-plied linear fibreglass‑reinforced laminated sheets used as base materials for printed boards and other interconnecting structures. The standard covers copper‑clad (and by title, unclad) reinforced base materials of defined flammability determined by a vertical burning test, with nominal thicknesses from 0.05 mm to 0.40 mm. EN 61249-2-19 is the CENELEC adoption of IEC 61249-2-19:2001 and is intended for material suppliers, PCB manufacturers and test laboratories involved in selection, specification and verification of thin copper‑clad laminates.

Key topics and technical requirements

  • Material construction: Cross‑plied linear fibreglass reinforcement combined with an epoxide resin matrix (epoxy) forming laminated sheets.
  • Copper cladding: Requirements apply to copper‑clad laminated sheets used for manufacture of printed circuit boards (PCBs) and interconnection structures.
  • Flammability classification: Defined flammability limits are determined by a vertical burning test specified in the standard (normative test method references apply).
  • Thickness range: Applies to laminated sheets with thickness between 0.05 mm and 0.40 mm, suitable for thin‑gauge base materials.
  • Referenced test and management standards: Normative references include IEC 61189‑2 (test methods for materials), IEC 61249‑5‑1 (copper foils), and management standards such as ISO 9000 (quality) and ISO 14001 (environmental management).
  • Normative/Informative annexes: The EN includes annex ZA (normative) and annexes A and B (informative) as part of its structure and compliance guidance.

Applications

  • Specification and procurement of PCB base materials where controlled flammability and thin copper‑clad laminates are required.
  • Quality and compliance checks by material suppliers and contract manufacturers producing flexible, rigid or rigid‑flex circuit substrates within the stated thickness range.
  • Laboratory testing and acceptance of copper‑clad laminates against vertical burning flammability criteria for product safety and regulatory conformity.

Who uses this standard

  • PCB designers and engineers specifying substrate materials.
  • Materials and copper foil manufacturers producing copper‑clad laminates.
  • Compliance, procurement and quality assurance teams evaluating supplier data sheets.
  • Test laboratories performing flammability and material property verification.
