Scope
This Standard specifies requirements for factory-applied fusion-bonded medium-density polyethylene coating and lining of pipes and fittings, for protection against corrosion. Polyethylene materials complying with this Standard are intended for application to pipes and fittings where the pipeline operating temperatures are not less than -40°C nor more than 70°C for the coating and 50°C for the lining.
The coating is intended for use on pipes and fittings for underground and underwater service, including steel piling. The lining is intended for use on pipes and fittings for pipelines conveying wastewater and water intended for human consumption.
Methods for determining compliance with this Standard are given in Appendix A.
