Concept: Yarns and threads, for textile use in the ncl vocabulary

Concept URI	http://dd.eionet.europa.eu/vocabulary/eurostat/ncl/NCL23
Preferred label	Yarns and threads, for textile use
Definition	As indicated in the brief Class Heading, yarns and threads, either natural or synthetic, are in Class 23 so long as they are for textile use. Clearly, cotton, silk or woolen threads and yarns are in this class. But, when used for textile purposes, fiberglass, elastic, rubber and plastic threads or yarns are in Class 23 also. It should be noted that the Alphabetical List sets forth a number of threads that are classified in classes other than Class 23 due to their specialized uses. Some examples of these are threads of plastic for soldering in Class 17, elastic yarns, not for use in textiles in Class 17 and identification threads for electric wires in Class 9.
