Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of 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. International 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.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described
in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the different types
of ISO document should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the
ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
ISO draws attention to the possibility that the implementation of this document may involve the use of (a)
patent(s). ISO takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of any claimed patent
rights in respect thereof. As of the date of publication of this document, ISO had not received notice of (a)
patent(s) which may be required to implement this document. However, implementers are cautioned that
this may not represent the latest information, which may be obtained from the patent database available at
www.iso.org/patents. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not

This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 38, Textiles, in collaboration with the European
Committee for Standardization (CEN) Technical Committee CEN/TC 248, Textiles and textile products, in
accordance with the Agreement on technical cooperation between ISO and CEN (Vienna Agreement).
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO 10325:2018), which has been technically
revised.
The main changes are as follows:
— a warning text regarding safety and risk has been added in the document before the Scope;
— Clause 3: a definition of general purpose use has been added;
— Clause 5: the description of material has been revised;
— Clause 6: Figure 1 has been revised, and the layout of the figures have been aligned;
— Clause 7: the description of physical properties and the liner density in Table 1 and Table 2 have been
revised, and footnotes accordingly to clarify values presented in the tables.

Avant-propos
L’ISO (Organisation internationale de normalisation) est une fédération mondiale d’organismes
nationaux de normalisation (comités membres de l’ISO). L’élaboration des Normes internationales est en
général confiée aux comités techniques de l’ISO. Chaque comité membre intéressé par une étude a le droit
de faire partie du comité technique créé à cet effet. Les organisations internationales, gouvernementales
et non gouvernementales, en liaison avec l’ISO participent également aux travaux. L’ISO collabore
étroitement avec la Commission électrotechnique internationale (IEC) en ce qui concerne la
normalisation électrotechnique.
Les procédures utilisées pour élaborer le présent document et celles destinées à sa mise à jour sont
décrites dans les Directives ISO/IEC, Partie 1. Il convient, en particulier, de prendre note des différents
critères d’approbation requis pour les différents types de documents ISO. Le présent document a été
rédigé conformément aux règles de rédaction données dans les Directives ISO/IEC, Partie 2
(voir www.iso.org/directives).
L’attention est attirée sur le fait que certains des éléments du présent document peuvent faire l’objet de
droits de brevet. L’ISO ne saurait être tenue pour responsable de ne pas avoir identifié tout ou partie de
tels droits de brevet. Les détails concernant les références aux droits de brevet identifiés lors de
l’élaboration du document sont indiqués dans l’Introduction et/ou dans la liste des déclarations de
brevets reçues par l’ISO (voir www.iso.org/brevets).

Les principales modifications par rapport à l’édition précédente sont les suivantes :
— Article 2 : utilisation de références non datées à la place de références datées ;
— Article 4 : révision de la description de la désignation ;
— Article 5 : révision de la description du matériau ;

Cordages en fibres — Polyéthylène à haut module — Cordages
tressés à 8 torons, cordages tressés à 12 torons et cordages avec
couverture
1 Domaine d’application
Le présent document spécifie les exigences applicables aux cordages tressés à 8 torons, aux cordages
tressés à 12 torons et aux cordages avec couverture (cordage tressé, cordage coaxial et construction à
âmes multiples) pour usage général fabriqués en polyéthylène à haut module (HMPE), et il précise les
règles pour leur désignation.
Il existe de nombreux types et de nombreuses qualités différentes de fibres HMPE qui sont couramment
utilisés pour fabriquer des cordages. Le présent document ne couvre pas toutes les variations de
résistance ou de performance des produits. Le fabricant de cordages et l’utilisateur doivent s’accorder
afin de s’assurer que la conception du cordage est adaptée à l’usage prévu.
NOTE La sécurité d’un cordage est déterminée par le fabricant ainsi que par l’utilisateur. Un cordage est adapté
à l’usage prévu si le fabricant l’a correctement conçu, fabriqué et soumis à l’essai. Ce n’est que lorsque l’utilisateur
applique, utilise, inspecte et entretient correctement le cordage qu’un cordage adapté à l’usage prévu est réellement
adapté au service attendu.
