Adopted ASTM D 1598-02. This test method covers the determination of the time-to-failure of both thermoplastic and reinforced thermosetting/

resin pipe under constant internal pressure.     

This test method covers the determination of the resistance of either thermoplastic or reinforced thermosetting resin pipe, tubing, or fittings to hydraulic pressure in a short time period. Procedure A is used to determine burst pressure of a specimen if the mode of failure is to be determined. Procedure B is used to determine that a specimen compiles with a minimum burst requirement.

 This specification covers the socket produced for solvent cement joints on both pressure and non-pressure IPS pipe.                

This terminology is a compilation of definitions of technical terms used in the plastic piping industry. Terms that are generally understood or adequately defined in other readily available sources are not included. When a term is used in an ASTM document for which Committee F17 is responsible it is included only when judged, after review , by Subcommittee F17.91 to be a generally usable term.
