Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.
For an explanation of the voluntary nature of standards, the meaning of ISO specific terms and
expressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO's adherence to
the World Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT), see
www.iso.org/iso/foreword.html.
This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 22, Road vehicles, Subcommittee SC 34,
Propulsion, powertrain and powertrain fluids.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 18418-2:2014), which has been technically
revised.
The main changes are as follows:
— high-strength steel tubes are required as fuel pressure increases;
— additional specification of tubes, already in use worldwide, are added.
A list of all parts in the ISO 18418 series can be found on the ISO website.
Any feedback or questions on this document should be directed to the user’s national standards body. A

ISO 18418-2:2022(E)
Introduction
Some spark ignition (SI) engines use direct injection (DI) fuel systems which supply gasoline under
pressure to a rail and to the injectors via pipe assemblies with a 60° concave cone connector. Such
components are similar to ISO 2974 and ISO 13296 for the diesel injection systems except for the
relationship between the outside and inside diameters of the pipes due to the lower pressure range.
GDI fuel systems typically operate in a pressure range of around 35 MPa and are labelled “high
pressure”. In the context of all injections systems, including diesel, this same pressure range is
considered as medium pressure, as diesel injection operates at much higher pressures, however the
term “high pressure” is used in this document.
