Standard Specification for Acrylonitrile-Butadiene-Styrene (ABS) Plastic Pipe (Metric SDR-PR)

ABSTRACT
This specification covers acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) pipe produced by single extrusion in standard thermoplastic pipe dimension ratios and pressure rated for water. Included are criteria for classifying ABS plastic pipe materials and ABS plastic pipe, a system of nomenclature for ABS plastic pipe, and requirements and test methods for materials, workmanship, dimensions, sustained pressure, burst pressure, and extrusion quality. Methods of marking are also given. The products covered by this specification are intended for use with the distribution of pressurized liquids, which are chemically compatible with the piping materials. Requirements cover workmanship, dimensions and tolerances (outside diameters and wall thickness), sustained pressure, burst pressure, and impact.
SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) pipe produced by single extrusion in standard thermoplastic pipe dimension ratios and pressure rated for water (see Appendix X1). Included are criteria for classifying ABS plastic pipe materials and ABS plastic pipe, a system of nomenclature for ABS plastic pipe, and requirements and test methods for materials, workmanship, dimensions, sustained pressure, burst pressure, and extrusion quality. Methods of marking are also given.  
1.2 The products covered by this specification are intended for use with the distribution of pressurized liquids, which are chemically compatible with the piping materials. Consult with the manufacturer and local building codes before use in other applications. Due to inherent hazards associated with testing components and systems with compressed air or other compressed gases some manufacturers do not allow pneumatic testing of their products. Consult with specific product/component manufacturers for their specific testing procedures prior to pneumatic testing.
Note 1: Pressurized (compressed) air or other compressed gases contain large amounts of stored energy, which present serious safety hazards should a system fail for any reason.
Note 2: This specification addresses only pipe for use in above ground service. For buried service consult the manufacturer and local building codes.
Note 3: Exposure to ultraviolet radiation over a long period of time may affect the physical properties of ABS pipe. Consult the manufacturer for recommendations for handling, storage, and installations that are not protected by insulation.  
1.3 Pipe meeting the requirements of this standard are not compatible with IPS sized DWV fittings. The ABS pipe covered in this standard is intended for pressure service and it shall be joined to pressure fittings. Non-pressure fittings, such as DWV fittings from any material (ABS, PVC, CPVC, etc.), are not acceptable for pressure applications.  
1.4 Units—The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.  
1.5 The text of this specification references notes, footnotes, and appendixes, which provide explanatory material. These notes and footnotes (excluding those in tables and figures) shall not be considered as requirements of the specification.  
1.6 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

NOTE 1—The following test conditions shall be used: Type A end caps as specified in ISO 1167. Orientation, not specified, 1 hr conditioning,
water-in-water or water-in-air testing.
Characteristic Requirement Hydrostatic (hoop) stress, Time, h Test Method

Resistance to No failure during test period 25.0 or σLCL at 20°C >1 ISO 1167
Internal Pressure and 1 hr, whichever is greater
Resistance to No failure during test period 20.6 or σLCL at 20°C >100 ISO 1167
Internal Pressure and 100 hr, whichever is greater
Resistance to No failure during test period 7.0 or σLCL at 60°C >1000 ISO 1167
Internal Pressure at 60°C and 1000 hr, whichever is greater
7.2 Test Conditions—Conduct the tests in the Standard Laboratory Atmosphere of 23 6 2°C and 50 6 5 % relative humidity,
unless otherwise specified in the test methods or in this specification.
7.3 Test Specimens—Not less than 50 % of the test specimens required for any pressure test shall have at least a part of the
marking in their central sections. The central section is that portion of pipe, which is at least one pipe diameter away from an end
closure.
7.4 Dimensions and Tolerances—Use any length of pipe to determine the dimensions. Measure in accordance with Test Method
D2122.
7.4.1 Outside Diameter—Measure the outside diameter and out-of-roundness of the pipe in accordance with Test Method
D2122. The average outside diameter is the arithmetic average of the maximum and minimum diameters at any cross section on
the length of the pipe. The tolerances for out-of-roundness shall apply only on pipe before shipment.
7.4.2 Wall Thickness—Make micrometer measurements of the wall thickness in accordance with Test Method D2122 to
determine the maximum and minimum values. Measure the wall thickness to the nearest 0.02 mm.
7.5 Sustained Pressure Test—Select the test specimens at random. Test individually with water at the stress levels, temperatures,
and times given in Table 3, eac
