BRIEF HISTORY
The IS0 Recommendation R 594, Conical Fittings for Syringes, Needles and other
Medical Equipment-Definition and Dimensional Characteristics for Conical Fittings with
a 6 % and a 10 % Taper, was drawn up by Technical Committee ISO/TC 84, Syringes for
the Secretariat of which is held by the Association
Medical Use and Needles for Injections,
Française de Normalisation (AFNOR).
Work on this question by the Technical Committee began in 1957 and led, in 1963,
to the adoption of a Draft IS0 Recommendation.
In September 1964, this Draft IS0 Recommendation (No. 739) was circulated to all
the IS0 Member Bodies for enquiry. It was approved, subject to a few modifications of
an editorial nature, by the following Member Bodies :
Argentina Hungary Sweden
Bulgaria Ireland Switzerland
Israel Turkey
Canada
Chile Netherlands U.A.R.
Czechoslovakia New Zealand United Kingdom
Denmark Poland Yugoslavia
France Republic of
Germany South Africa
Greece Spain
No Member Body opposed the approval of the Draft.
The Draft IS0 Recommendation was then submitted by correspondence to the IS0
Council, which decided, in July 1967, to accept it as an IS0 RECOMMENDATION.
