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.

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

This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 138, Plastics pipes, fittings and valves
for the transport of fluids, Subcommittee SC 5, General properties of pipes, fittings and valves of plastic
materials and their accessories -- Test methods and basic specifications, in collaboration with the
European Committee for Standardization (CEN) Technical Committee CEN/TC 155, Plastics piping
systems and ducting systems, in accordance with the Agreement on technical cooperation between ISO
and CEN (Vienna Agreement).
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO 13479:2009), which has been technically
revised.
The main changes are as follows:
— warnings have been added to follow the method of test piece preparation and the test procedure
because of the influence on the result;
— a maximum notch radius has been specified;
— in case of premature failure, alternative test pressures and times for PE 80 and PE 100 have been
added to allow retesting at a lower pressure for a longer time;
— an accelerated method by testing with an external detergent has been added.

5 Principle
A length of pipe with four machined longitudinal external notches is subject to a hydrostatic pressure
test whilst immersed in a water tank at 80 °C in accordance with ISO 1167-1 and ISO 1167-2. The time to
failure or test period is recorded.
NOTE 1 It is assumed that the following test parameters are set by the standard or specification making
reference to this test method:
a) the number of test pieces, if applicable (see 7.5);
ISO 13479:2022(E)
b) the test pressure (see 9.1);
c) the test period (see 9.1).
To accelerate the test, the pipe with external machined notches is immersed in a tank containing a
® 1)
detergent, for example Arkopal N100 , in accordance with Annex D.
6 Apparatus
6.1 Pipe pressure-testing equipment, as specified in ISO 1167-1.
NOTE Ideally when testing notched pipes, it is recommended to use a single test station. Furthermore, it
is recommended to use automated shut off equipment for each individual pipe when testing multiple pipes on
a manifold. Otherwise, when a pipe fails, the other pipes are disturbed, and re-pressurizing can accelerate any
crack growth present in the notches.
6.2 Notch machining equipment, for example a milling machine with a horizontal mandrel rigidly
fixed to the bed to enable the pipe to be securely clamped to give a straight test piece.
Alternatively, the pipe to be notched can also be fixed from the outside with suitable clamps to keep it
in a stable position to avoid vibrations during the notching process.
The milling cutter mounted on a horizontal arbor shall be a 60° double equal angle V-cutter with a
pointed tip, having a calculated cutting rate of (0,010 ± 0,002) (mm/r)/tooth (see example).
It is important that the cutting rate is within the specified range, otherwise the results will not be valid.
EXAMPLE A cutter with 20 teeth rotating at 700 r/min, traversed at a speed of 150 mm/min, has a calculated
cutting rate of 150/(20 × 700) = 0,011 (mm/r)/tooth.
Vibration of the cutter or the machine bed can affect the radius formed at the bottom of the notch and
shall be minimized.
The milling cutter shall be carefully protected against damage. The cutter shall be subject to a running-
in treatment amounting to 10 m of notching at the specified cutting rate, prior to its first use for the
preparation of test pieces. It shall not be used for any other material or purpose and shall be replaced
after 500 m of notching.
The cutter shall be checked for damage or wear after not more than 100 m of cutting. The cutter teeth
shall be compared with a new cutter by examination with a microscope using a magnification of 10 to
20 times. If there is any evidence of damage or wear it shall be replaced.
The quality of the cutter and machining process can be checked by carrying out notching of a sample
and visually checking the notch tip radius after cutting the cross-section of the pipe. This shall be done
after installation of a new cutter.
6.3 End caps, type A in accordance with ISO 1167-1.

Prior to any measurements the test piece shall be
