The distribution of fiber or polymer lengths during breakage is considered. It is shown that under certain conditions the distribution of lengths is given by a self‐preserving form which is independent of the initial distribution and is not explicitly dependent on time. Some self‐preserving distributions are calculated. The theory is compared with an experiment on the breakage of glass fibres caused by milling.
