Thermoplastics pipes - Longitudinal reversion - Test method and parameters
ISO 2505:2005 specifies a method for determining the longitudinal reversion of thermoplastics pipes, to be carried out in either a liquid or in air. In case of dispute, heated liquid is used as the reference. ISO 2505:2005 is applicable to all thermoplastics pipes with smooth internal and external walls of constant cross-section. It is not applicable to non-smooth structured-wall thermoplastics pipes.

Le présent document décrit deux méthodes d'essai pour déterminer le retrait longitudinal à chaud des tubes en matières thermoplastiques cylindriques à surfaces lisses.
This document specifies a method for determining the longitudinal reversion of thermoplastics pipes, to be carried out in either a liquid or in air. In case of dispute, heated liquid is used as the reference. This document is applicable to all thermoplastics pipes with smooth internal and external walls of constant cross‑section. It is not applicable to non‑smooth structured‑wall thermoplastics pipes. The parameters appropriate to the pipe material and recommendations for the maximum levels of reversion as a function of the pipe material are given in Annex A. This method is applicable for pipes of wall thickness ≤ 16 mm.
The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.
The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
With Requirements, quickly access the main part of the normative text!
