Scope

This document specifies a test method to determine if a fitting will fail in crushing mode under compression before a predefined percentage deformation of moulded fittings for thermoplastics piping systems and recommends a specification (see annex A).

It applies to fittings made from unplasticized poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC-U), high-impact poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC-HI), chlorinated poly(vinyl chloride)(PVC-C), polyethylene(PE), polypropylene(PP), Acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS), Poly (vinylidene difluoride) (PVDF),and poly(phenyl sulfone)(PPSU).

It can be applied to moulded fittings made from other thermoplastics as well. However, the test conditions should be taken into consideration.
