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.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting.
Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this part of ISO 90 may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard ISO 90-3 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 52, Light gauge metal containers,
Subcommittee SC 6, Aerosol containers.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 90-3:1986) which has been technically revised.
ISO 90 consists of the following parts, under the general title Light gauge metal containers — Definitions and
determination of dimensions and capacities:
� Part 1: Open-top cans
� Part 2: General use containers
� Part 3: Aerosol cans
NOTE An "open-top can" is a can one end of which is double-seamed after filling. A "general use container" is a container
which is sealed after filling with a closure that need not be double-seamed.
Annex A of this International Standard is for information only.
