U PVC Pipe Tolerances
U PVC Pipe Tolerances
(OP)
I am investigating a case dating back to 2002. A number of 280mm outside diameter UPVC pipes where installed for water supply. The stamp on the outside of the pipe said DIN 19532.
I am finding it hard to get any information on this standard.
Is this DIN standard still in use?
What british standard could I use to check the specifications?
I need to measure the pipe to make sure that it was manufactured to the correct tolerances.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Regards,
Conor

[It is some interesting this dimension is only very slightly less than the 11.10 inch nominal outside diameter of nominal ten inch AWWA ductile iron or pvc pipe.]

Suggest you contact the manufacturer and seek a copy from them.
Rconner,
280mm is a common PVC-U size and refers to the OD. It is used with DN250 DI fittings.

Australian Standard AS 2280-2004 Ductile Iron pipe & Fittings. Dimensions are perhaps peculiar to this market downunder.
The PVC manufacturers (Vinidex and Iplex pipelines) here produce pipe to match the size of ductile iron. PVC-U, PVC-M and PVC-O are extruded.

There are quite a few standards that give tolerances in one direction only. The best bet would be to contact DIN.
