This part of BS 7141 specifies requirements for laces made from narrow fabrics, intended for footwear and general-purpose applications. It covers aspects such as dimensions, construction, materials, performance characteristics, and test methods.
The standard applies to laces made from textile materials, including both natural and synthetic fibres, and is intended to ensure durability, strength, and functional performance under normal usage conditions. It includes guidance on tensile strength, elongation, abrasion resistance, and colour fastness.
This specification supports manufacturers, retailers, and testing laboratories in assessing the quality and suitability of laces for various end uses beyond just footwear, such as in clothing or equipment fastening.
