Corporate Overview
AGY, an ISO9001 certified company
for almost 30 years, is a global leader
in specialty glass yarns, rovings
and chop products. The AGY world
headquarters, technology center and
manufacturing facility are all located in
Aiken, SC U.S.A., with commercial and
administrative offices in Lyon France,
and a commercial office in Suzhou,
China.
YarnBook2021.indd 1
Glass Fiber Manufacturing
AGY glass fibers are made from molten glass. The viscous liquid
is drawn through tiny holes at the base of the furnace to form
hair-like filaments. A protective sizing, applied as the filament cools and
hardens, helps prevent abrasion during additional processing and
makes the glass compatible with various resin systems.
After sizing is applied, filaments are gathered into strands and wound
into intermediate (forming) packages for further processing. These
strands become the basic components for a variety of textile, roving
and chop products.
Textile yarns are produced by twisting and sometimes plying several
strands of fiber. Once twisted, the yarns can be further processed by
beaming or rewinding onto different packages.
Textile yarns can also be textured for decorative and industrial
applications and coated with a variety of resinous or elastomeric
materials. For some textile processes, the gathered strands are
not wound onto packages but are further processed into chopped
strands for a variety of applications.

Glass Fiber Nomenclature
General
Glass fiber yarns are typically identified by either an inch-pound based system (U.S.
customary system) or a TEX/metric system (based on the SI*/metric system). This
section gives a brief description of glass yarn nomenclature, including comparisons of
the two systems. A more comprehensive description can be found in ASTM D578 –
standard specification for glass fiber strands.
AGY’s products use standardized nomenclature designations that include both
alphabetical and numerical elements. They identify glass composition, filament type,
strand count and yarn construction. These designations match either an inch-pound
version or a TEX/metric version. Both systems are industry-recognized identifications.
Roving Nomenclature
Glass fiber roving nomenclature is defined by ASTM D578. The nomenclature uses
alpha-numeric designations signifying binder, sizing, yield in yards/lb and method of
manufacture/construction of a roving. The following is an explanation of the standard
alpha-numerical form: XXXX-YY-ZZZZ.
• “XXXX” is a number/character combination signifying a binder (sizing).
Typically it is a three-digit number with or without a letter designation afterwards.
• “YY” is a two-character alpha (letter) designation used internally by AGY to
identify the method of manufacture or construction of a roving, for example it
may be an assemblage of multiple ends of a G75 yarn to produce a given yield.
The letters change as the method of production changes. Note that each
company producing glass fiber rovings use their own letter designations so they
would not be comparable for similar products from different manufacturers.
Because of this, roving nomenclature is often shortened to indicate only the sizing
and the yield as in 449-750, dropping the two-letter middle designator.
• “ZZZZ” at the end of the form is the yield in yards/lb for U.S. customary system
(or TEX for the SI/metric system), typically rounded to the nearest conventional
yield (e.g., AGY’s 750 yield rovings are actually 735 yd/lb nominal).
Designations such as 250, 750 and 1250 have been in existence for years, and
it has become convention to use them instead of actual nominals. Please refer to
the appropriate product technical specification for actual yields of a given product.
Chop Nomenclature
Glass fiber chop nomenclature is defined by ASTM D578. The chop nomenclature is
modeled after yarn nomenclature, and has the basic form:
SG37 544 5/32 INCH 2204 LB BULK BAG
Where
S = Glass type, can be E, S, L etc
G = Filament diameter
37 = Chop bundle size, in this case it was chopped from a 3700 yd/lb input
544 = Binder system
5/32 inch = Chop length

Twist
The
fifth segment in the yarn nomenclature is the number of basic strands* twisted
together into a single yarn. Following this number is the number of turns per unit
length and either the letter “S” or “Z” which indicates the direction of the twist. The
S or Z direction of the yarn is determined by the slope of the yarn when it is held in
a vertical position.
A twist is mechanically applied to yarns because, in addition to helping keep all
of the filaments together, it provides the yarn with higher abrasion resistance,
improved processing and better tensile strength.
U.S. Customary Yield
The
approximate length of the fabricated yarn required to make one pound mass
can be computed when the yield designation number is multiplied by 100 and
divided by the total number of strands. The result of this computation must always
be considered approximate. The yards per pound are reduced slightly in the
twisting and plying operations, and by the addition of sizes or binders.
Regulatory Considerations
AGY routinely monitors, re-examines and reviews the legislative and regulatory
landscape of various regions where our glass fiber products are sold or imported.
Some of the key regulatory guidelines that concern our customers are TSCA,
REACH, CLP, RoHS, WEEE, EU End of Life Vehicles Directive,
JAMP, California Prop 65 Labeling, and Conflict Minerals. AGY
consistently strives to fully comply with all pertinent expectations that apply to our
product’s safety. However, given the broad and varied scope of this continuously
changing legislative endeavor, AGY recommends that customers contact us
directly with their specific questions or concerns.
*A “basic” strand is one produced from a single bushing.
Z twist: ascending left to
right configuration as in
center of letter Z
S-Twist:
The strands assume
an ascending right to left
configuration as in the central
portion of the letter S.
Z-Twist:
The strands assume
an ascending left to right
configuration as in the central
portion of the letter Z.
