NOTES TO THE READER
SOME RULES AND CONDITIONS
1. Processing Techniques: It is stressed that these policies and procedures are for development of
recommended ratings for thermoplastics piping materials or pipe based on test data from good quality
pipes (extruded or molded) made by specific processing techniques. These recommended ratings may
or may not be valid for products made by differing processing techniques.
2. Definitions and Acronyms: Definitions and Acronyms are shown in the next section. The
terminology of this report is in accordance with the definitions given in ASTM Standards D883,
"Standard Definition of Terms Relating to Plastics," and F412, "Standard Terminology Relating to
Plastic Piping Systems”.
3. Adjusting Recommended Ratings for Application-Specific Environments:
HDB/PDB/MRS/SDB recommended ratings issued by PPI are for conditions equivalent to those
under which the test data were obtained, e.g., constant pressure, temperature and specific test
environment. Various industry standards or regulations provide appropriate design factors or design
coefficients to calculate the corresponding maximum allowable operating pressure for the piping
system used in the desired application. Under some conditions, such as pressure cycling, higher
temperature, more aggressive environment, or handling and installation quality, all of which may
significantly reduce pipe durability, a more conservative design factor or design coefficient should be
chosen. More information on design factors and design coefficients is given in PPI TR-9,
"Recommended Design Factors and Design Coefficients for Pressure Applications of Thermoplastic
Pipe Materials". Sustained pressure testing at elevated temperatures used to obtain these
ratings may not be sufficient to fully evaluate either the thermal or oxidative stability
performance of thermoplastic materials or pipe.
4. Product Standards: An HDB/PBD/SDB/MRS recommended rating has been shown, through
both scientific procedures and historical experience, to be a useful indicator of the relative long-term
strength of a thermoplastic material when tested under the conditions set out in test method ASTM
D2837 or ISO 9080. The performance of a material (or a piping product made with that material)
under actual conditions of installation and use is dependent upon a number of other factors and
conditions, which are not addressed in this report. These other factors and conditions are properly
governed by the relevant product standard. The usefulness and adequacy of an
HDB/PDB/SDB/MRS as an indicator of the strength of a material or pipe for use in any particular
application is reflected in its incorporation in the applicable product standard, along with other
appropriate performance parameters for the product and its component material. The
appropriateness of an HDB/PDB/SDB/MRS for a specific application is also determined by the
decision of a private or governmental entity to adopt such a standard as part of its own requirements
for the product. The term “50-year strength value,” as used in ASTM D2837, is a mathematical
extrapolation that is useful in the context of developing an HDB. It does not necessarily constitute a
representation that any material with such a value will perform under actual use conditions for that
period of time.
5. Sunlight (UV) Exposure: These policies do not take into consideration the adequacy of a plastic
composition's protection against sunlight exposure. Manufacturers may include in plastic pipe
compositions suitable ingredients for the protection of properties against possible degradation by
sunlight radiation during normal storage and use. The user should insure that sufficient protection
has been incorporated into the selected piping composition should the application involve extended
sunlight exposure during storage and/or use.
5
6. Recommended Ratings are Formulation Specific: Each HDB/PDB/SDB/MRS issued by PPI is
specific to that particular thermoplastic piping material formulation, including the procedure for
mixing, which is represented by the data submitted to the HSB. Any changes in the mixing
procedure, in the formulation, or in its ingredients, outside those permitted in TR-3 are considered to
result in a new composition, which may have different long-term strength properties. The listed
HDB/PDB/SDB/MRS does not apply to this new composition, unless the changes have been made,
or validated, in accordance with one or more of the policies presented in this report; or have been
ruled upon by the HSB as acceptable based on information provided to the HSB.
7. Resin Changes: An inherent assumption in the development of these policies and procedures is that
the commercial pipe resin will be of equivalent chemical and molecular composition, insofar as these
parameters influence long-term strength and durability, to the resin used in the composition on which
the original long-term data supplied to PPI were obtained. Any modification of the resin composition
is considered to result in a different material from the one on which the original listings were based.
The Chairman of the HSB should be notified of such modifications and the applicable policy
followed to maintain the listing. In the case of a change in manufacturing location of the resin used in
a listed compound, the Chairman of the HSB should be notified and any applicable policy followed to
maintain the listing. Also, in the case of any deviation or circumstance not covered by a specific
policy, a disposition will have to be made by the HSB in consultation with the manufacturer.
8. Disclaimer: While every effort has been made by the Plastics Pipe Institute to assure that these
policies are sound, reasonable and prudent, PPI expressly disclaims any guarantee or warranty
regarding their application. Each manufacturer who lists compositions in accordance with the
procedures in TR-3 does so voluntarily and with the express agreement that PPI assumes no liability
in regard to the listed compositions, and that the manufacturer will hold PPI harmless from any claims
or liability arising in connection with its listed pipe compositions.
9. Manufacturer’s Responsibility: The manufacturer is responsible to insure that his product is
continually manufactured in such a manner as to maintain the long-term strength and durability
consistent with the long-term data supplied to the HSB. In the case of a deviation or circumstance
not covered by a specific policy, a disposition will have to be made by the HSB in consultation with
the manufacturer.
10. Adoption of Policies and Procedures: These policies and procedures have been adopted using
standard letter ballot methods.
11. Interpretations: Questions pertaining to the interpretation of any policies in this report should be
referred to the Chairman of the HSB, Plastics Pipe Institute, 105 Decker Court, Suite 825, Irving, TX
75063.
12. Maximum Temperature for Listings: The maximum temperature for which PPI will list an
HDB/PDB/SDB/MRS for a material in accordance with the policies and procedures in TR-3 is
200oF (93oC). PPI listing for temperatures above 200oF may be requested as a “Special Case” (see
note 13) for consideration by the HSB.
13. Special Case Listings: The policies and procedures in TR-3 are intended to cover
HDB/PDB/SDB/MRS listings for most thermoplastic piping materials. PPI recognizes there may
be unusual cases, issues or circumstances that are not covered in TR-3, and that may justify an
exception to the standard policies. To allow manufacturers an opportunity to have their material(s)
listed by PPI when this occurs, the HSB has provided a “Special Case” system. The manufacturer
may present its “Case” to the HSB at one of their two annual meetings, usually in February and
August, using the approved “Checklist for HSB Submissions” form in TR-3 Appendix A.1. All
information provided to HSB in these special cases will be made available for review only by HSB
members and PPI staff, and will be held by them in strict confidence, in accordance with PPI’s
written confidentiality procedures (available from the HSB Chairman). There is a PPI fee for each
6
special case. You must contact the HSB Chairman well in advance of each meeting to arrange for
your special case. A completed HSB submission form must be received at least two (2) weeks
prior to the HSB meeting to permit HSB consideration at that meeting.

SECTION I
The tables that follow present PPI recommended HDB's in effect on the date of issue of this report.
Information on subsequently listed materials may be obtained by contacting the Plastics Pipe Institute.
Each table has been divided into dependent listings and independent listings. A resin manufacturer or pipe
manufacturer may have an independent listing in which they provide all the stress rupture data required by
TR-3. A resin manufacturer may transfer their listing to the pipe manufacturer using the protocol in TR-3.
In this case, the pipe manufacturer has a dependent listing.
The listings of HDB's have been sub grouped in accordance with the material's standard pipe material
designation code. In this designation system, which is widely used by major national product standards, the
plastic is identified by its standard abbreviated terminology in accordance with ASTM D 1600, "Standard
Terminology Relating to Abbreviations, Acronyms, and Codes for Terms Relating to Plastics", followed by
a four or five digit number. The first two or three digits, as the case may be, code the material's ASTM
classification (short-term properties) in accordance with the appropriate ASTM standard specification for
that material. The last two digits of this number represent the PPI recommended HDS at 73oF (23oC)
divided by one hundred. Three examples of this pipe material designation code are as follows:
CPVC 4120 is a chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (the CPVC abbreviation is in accordance with ASTM D
1600) classified as Type 4, Grade 1 (in accordance with ASTM F 441) which has a 2,000 psi maximum
recommended HDS utilizing a 0.5 design factor at 73oF (23oC) for water.
POM 21110 is a polyoxymethylene (the POM abbreviation is in accordance with ASTM D 1600)
classified as Group 2, Class 1, Grade 1 (in accordance with ASTM D 4181) which has a 1,000 psi
maximum recommended HDS utilizing a 0.5 design factor at 73oF (23oC) for water.

The reader is advised that the MRS and CRS(θ, t) values listed in TR-4 represent an approximation of
the likelihood that pipe specimens produced from these materials will not fail when placed in service
and utilized in conjunction with the appropriate design coefficients. HDB values as determined in
accordance with TR-3 policies include a stress reduction factor (design factor) to arrive at a
recommended HDS. MRS and CRS(θ, t) designations, as determined in accordance with ISO 9080, do
not include any stress reduction factors (design coefficients) that are required prior to its application for
an intended service. As such, it is the responsibility of the design engineer to determine the appropriate
design coefficients for the particular application when using MRS and CRS(θ, t). The reader is advised
to consult the owner of the material designation for specifics regarding interpretation or use of the
