(Specification)Standard Specification for Flexible Poly (Vinyl Chloride) (PVC) Gaskets used in Connection of Water Closets to Sanitary Drainage System
Standard Specification for Flexible Poly (Vinyl Chloride) (PVC) Gaskets used in Connection of Water Closets to Sanitary Drainage System
SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers material and performance requirements for plasticized PVC compression gaskets used in the connection of residential and commercial water closets to 3 and 4-in. sanitary drainage pipe. These type gaskets are inserted into and compress against the inside diameter of the sewer pipe while attaching to the water closet with a flexible adhesive. The result is a gas- and water-tight seal.
1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard.
1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, is any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and to determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
