PART 6 SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS FOR PIPE ENDS
(First Revision)

FOREWORD”
This Indian Standard (Part 6) (First Revision) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards, after the draft
finalized by the Plastic Piping System Sectional Committee had been approved by the Civil Engineering Division
Council.
This standard covers general requirements for injection moulded/machined HDPE fittings which are used for
connection by welding process to HDPE pipes covered by IS 4984 : 1995 ‘High density polyethylene pipe for
water supply (f&,o-th revision)’.
This standard was first published in 1976. Keeping in view the developments in this field and considering
revision of 1S 4984 this standard has been revised.
The requirements of injection moulded/machined HDPE fittings are covered in nine parts. The other parts in this
series are:
Al I revised parts have been aligned with IS 4984 with respect to grade of material, dimensional requirements,
testing procedures and sampling methodology.
Provisions has been made for rewelding, in case any weld gets rejected. Weld length had been kept constant with
a uniform tolerance.
Drawings have been revised from short neck pipe ends to long neck pipe ends. The range of diameter of fittings,
weld length and clarity of the dimensions in the drawings had been incorporated in each part of tbe standard,
wherever applicable.
This standard covers general requirements for materials, manufacture, dimensions, tolerances, etc for pipe ends.
Specific requirement of different types of fittings are covered in separate parts of this standard.
Fittings from 20 mm to 315 mm are manufactured by the injection moulding methods and machined, wherever
so required and fittings of 355 mm and above shall be manufactured by machining process from thick walled
extruded pipes or compression moulded slabs.
For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with the final value,
observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis, shall be rounded off in accordance with
IS ~ : 1960 ‘Rules for rounding off numerics] values (revi~e~’. The number of significant p]aces retained in the
rounded off value should be the same as that of the specified value in this standard.
