Overview

ISO 3660:1976 - "Fishing nets - Mounting and joining of netting - Terms and illustrations" is an international standard produced by ISO/TC 38 (Textiles). It lists the common methods used to mount (fix) and join fishing netting panels, gives concise definitions, and provides corresponding diagrams. Each method is identified by a reference number so manufacturers, technicians and specifiers can unambiguously refer to mounting and joining techniques used in nets with different mesh types and edge cuts.

Key Topics

  • Scope and purpose
    • Standardizes terms and illustrated methods for mounting netting to ropes or frames and for joining netting panels.
    • Focuses on practical mounting/joining techniques rather than performance requirements.
  • Definitions
    • Mounting, rope, frame, mounting yarn, and mounting-related components are defined to ensure consistent terminology.
  • Methods of mounting netting
    • Describes mounting for nets with straight edges (AK/AN/AT and AB cuts), square and fly meshes, and tapered edges (K/N/T combined with B cuts).
    • Mounting types include fixed mounting, loose mounting, mixed mounting, and mounting using special yarns (norsels).
  • Methods of joining netting
    • Distinguishes two primary joining methods: sewing (remmaillage) - formation of knotted half-meshes or loops - and seaming/lacing (couture) - fastening edges without half-mesh formation.
    • Provides numbered cases covering panels with same or different mesh counts and mesh sizes for both diamond-shaped and square meshes.
  • Joining ratio (take-up)
    • Specifies how to express the ratio for joining panels (fraction of meshes or unit length, typically metres) to account for differences in mesh count or stretched length.

Applications

  • Useful for fishing-net manufacturers, net assembly workshops, and suppliers to standardize how netting is mounted to ropes or frames and how panels are joined.
  • Helps designers and engineers specify mounting/joining methods in procurement documents, drawings and contracts.
  • Valuable to quality inspectors, training programs, and maintenance/repair technicians who need consistent terminology and diagram references for net construction and repairs.
  • Supports interoperability and replacement/repair of net panels by clarifying mounting yarn, norsel, and joining practices.

Related Standards

  • ISO 1531 - Fishing nets: Hanging of netting - Basic terms and definitions (referenced by ISO 3660 for hanging terminology).

Keywords: ISO 3660, fishing nets, mounting of netting, joining netting, mounting yarn, sewing, seaming, norsel, mesh types, joining ratio.

FOREWORD
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation
of national Standards institutes (ISO Member Bodies). The work of developing
International Standards is carried out through ISO Technical Committees. Every
Member Body interested in a subject for which a Technical Committee has been set
up 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.
Draft International Standards adopted by the Technical Committees are circulated
to the Member Bodies for approval before their acceptance as International
Standards by the ISO Council.
International Standard ISO 3660 was drawn up by Technical Committee
ISO/TC 38, Textiles, and circulated to the Member Bodies in March 1975.
