4 Types of fittings
Types and shapes of fittings are to the discretion of the manufacturer and therefore not standardized or
limited regarding measurements.
5 Materials
5.1 General
All materials of fitting body and components shall be resistant against the medium of the respective
application. In case of potable water, national hygienic requirements apply.
5.2 Material of the fitting body
5.2.1 Malleable cast iron
The material used for the fitting body shall be malleable cast iron conforming to EN 1562. The grade of
material used shall be selected from the following grades:
— Grade EN-GJMW-400-5 for fittings in white heart malleable iron.
— Grade EN-GJMB-350-10 for fittings in black heart malleable iron.
Fittings shall be designated by material symbol according to the selected material mentioned above and
as given in Table 1.

EN-GJMB-350-10
5.3 Material of the fitting components
Materials of the internal parts of the fittings in contact with PE pipe shall not adversely affect pipe
performance, e.g. by initiation of stress cracking. If a lubricant (detergent, grease, etc.) is used for

assembly to fail the functional and hygienic requirements.
5.4 Elastomers
The material of elastomeric sealing rings used in fittings shall be chosen for drinking water application
from EN 681-1 and for gas supply from EN 682, and/or EN 549, depending on the specific application and

6.2.1 General
Where a protection by zinc coating is required, the zinc coating shall be applied by the hot dip galvanizing
process and shall meet the following requirements.
Additional permanent coatings on top of the hot dip zinc coating do not fall under the category of hot dip
galvanizing in terms of use in the potable water application. The suitability of additional permanent
coatings for potable water applications should be demonstrated by testing.
6.2.2 Chemical composition of the hot dip zinc coating
The content by mass of the accompanying elements in the finished zinc coating shall not exceed the
following maximum values:
— antimony (Sb) 0,01 %
— arsenic (As) 0,02 %
— bismuth (Bi) 0,01 %
— cadmium (Cd) 0,01 %

respect to drinking water applications. When fittings are used in potable water applications, relevant national
hygienic regulations apply.
6.2.3 Coating mass per surface unit and layer thickness
2
The surface related mass of the zinc coating shall not be less than 500 g/m , which equals to a layer
thickness of 70 μm. These limits refer to the average of 5 fittings with 10 measurements each, statistically
distributed across the fitting. The layer mass/thickness measured on an individual sample shall not be
2
less than 450 g/m (63 μm).
The medium layer thickness s of the zinc coating in µm shall be calculated by using the approximation
formula:

6.4.1 General
For the use of fittings produced in accordance with this document, it is advisable to comply with national
regulations with regard to the release of dangerous substances.
6.4.2 Hot dip zinc coating
