GB/T 6836-2018 is the Chinese national product standard for sewing thread, covering polyester sewing thread and carded and combed cotton sewing thread.
It defines the terms used for the product and its defects, such as unbalanced twisting thread, and splits the technical requirements into physical and chemical properties and appearance quality, including breaking strength, its coefficient of variation and linear density.
It also gives the test methods, among them the measurement of thread length, together with acceptance rules, packaging, marking, transportation and storage, and an annex with the formula for calculating breaking strength.
Colour fastness is rated with the grey scales of GB/T 250 and GB/T 251. Thread manufacturers and textile testing laboratories apply it. It replaces GB/T 6836-2007, was issued on 28 December 2018 and has applied since 1 April 2019.

--- Revised scope (see Chapter 1, Chapter 1 of the 2007 edition);
--- Increased terms and definitions such as the line of stagnation, cobwebs (see Chapter 3);
--- Removed the composite strand specification, twist (reference) index, adjust the single-line breaking strength, fracture strength coefficient of variation technical indicators (See Table 1, Table 3, Table 4 of the 2007 edition);
--- Appropriately improved the wet fastness requirements of cotton sewing threads (see Table 5, Table 6 of 2007);
--- Increased the allowable deviation rate of knots and length (see Table 2, Table 5, 2007 editions Table 2, Table 6);
--- Supplemented and improved the test method for the length of the sewing thread (see 5.4, 2007 edition 6.7);
--- Revised the sampling method in the appearance inspection, and improved the requirements for the appearance of the miss rate (see Table 8, 2007 version of Table 9);
--- Increased the calculation formula for the breaking strength of sewing thread (see Appendix A).
