1 Scope
This standard defines the technical, vocabulary in German, English, French, widely in use for flexible
tubes.
It is applicable to plastics or metal single layer flexible tubes, and to multilayer or laminated tubes which
are used for packing pharmaceutical, cosmetic, hygiene, food, and other domestic or industrial products.
2 General definitions
For the purposes of this standard, the following definitions apply:
2.1
flexible tube
container of flexible metal, plastics or laminate which can be sealed in such a manner that its content,
although readily discharged in any desired quantity is protected against external contamination during the
whole period of use
2.2
shoulder
moulded or extruded component part of a total tube body which forms the nozzle end of the tube
2.3
nozzle
outlet of a flexible tube through which the content is expelled by squeezing the wall of the tube
2.4
tamper evident nozzle
nozzle which has the orifice closed by, for example, a thin diaphragm which can be pierced
2.5
cap
closure for the nozzle end of a flexible tube
3 Specific terms for metallic tubes
The different parts of the tube are represented and identified in Figure 1.
Table 1 allows the corresponding term to be found in German, English and French.
