ASTM F1674-18(2026)

Annotation of standard text ASTM F1674-18(2026) :

This test method describes a procedure for qualifying the performance of joint restraint products for use on PVC pressure pipe systems by evaluating the effect of the joint restraint product on the performance characteristics of PVC pipe during cyclic pressure tests and static pressure tests. This test method is useful for establishing any effects that a joint restraint product has on the performance of PVC pressure pipe. This test method is designed so that success in all three parts of the test provides reasonable assurance that a joint restraint product may be used on PVC pipe at the full pressure rating and capacity of the pipe. Pipe specimen length, minimum burst pressure test, sustained pressure test, and cyclic surge pressure test shall be performed to conform with the specified requirements.
