Introduction
This product standard contains the requirements for adhesives for thermoplastic piping systems under
pressure independent of piping system application. The existing system and application standards which
specify parameters for adhesive joints in particular application areas and the test methods specified therein
remain unchanged. The requirements referred to in these system standards concern temperature, pressure
and standard life span of the piping system, and are applicable to all the components of the piping system for
all the relevant dimensions that are required in the specified application.

This product standard completes the characterisation of the adhesives for thermoplastic piping systems in
conjunction with another product standard EN 14680 "Adhesives for non-pressure thermoplastic piping

systems - Specifications". These product standards are supported by standard test methods to which
references are made through the texts.

1 Scope
This European Standard specifies the functional requirements and test methods for adhesives used for joining
the components of unplasticised poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC-U), chlorinated poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC-C),
acrylonitrile -butadiene-styrene (ABS) thermoplastic piping systems for fluids under pressure.

It provides for the evaluation of conformity of the adhesive for this EN.
