ISO 13953:2001 Polyethylene (PE) pipes and fittings - Determination of the tensile strength and failure mode of test pieces from a butt-fused joint

standard by International Organization for Standardization, 09/15/2001

Full Description

This International Standard describes a test method for determination of the tensile strength and tensile failure mode of butt-fused polyethylene (PE) pipe assemblies.

The method is applicable to butt-fused joints between PE pipes with a nominal outside diameter of not less than 90 mm.

The method may be used, together with other test methods, to evaluate the quality of the butt-fused joints.
