The results of these tests shall become part of the manufacturer's permanent quality
control records.

Each length of pipe produced shall be checked by production staff at the pipe
manufacturer's plant for the items listed below. The results of all measurements shall
be recorded on production sheets which shall become part of the pipe manufacturers
permanent records.
i ) Pipe in process shall be checked visually, inside and out, for cosmetic defects
(grooves, pits, hollows, etc.), which are cause for rejection.
ii ) Pipe outside diameter shall be measured using a suitable periphery tape to
ensure conformance with ASTM F714 -83.
iii) Pipe wall thickness shall be measured at 12 equally spaced locations around the
circumference at both ends of the pipe to ensure conformance with ASTM F714-
83.
iv) Pipe length shall be measured.
v) Pipe marking shall be examined and checked for accuracy.
vi) Pipe ends shall be checked to ensure they are cut square and clean.
c) Test Equipment Evaluation
The pipe manufacturers quality assurance staff shall check each manufacturing line,
twice daily, for compliance with the above procedures, as well as carry out the
following:
i ) Check the accuracy of all micrometers and periphery tapes used by the
production staff.

1.5 Joining Mettpds
a) Whenever possible, the polyethylene pipe should be joined by the method of thermal
butt - fusion, as outlined in ASTM 02657.
b) Butt- fusion joining of pipe and fittings shall be performed in accordance with the
procedures established by the pipe manufacturer. Joining must be conducted by, or
under the supervision of a factory trained representative.
c) Fusion pressures, temperatures and cycle times shall be according to pipe
manufacture's recommendations. No pipe or fittings shall be joined by fusion by any
contractor unless he is adequately trained and qualified in the technique involved.
d) The polyethylene pipe may be adapted to fittings or other pipe elements by means of
a suitable flange assembly, threaded or grooved end adapters, or mechanical clamps.
Flange assemblies shall consist of the following items:
i ) A polyethylene stub end made from the same material as the pipe. This stub
end shall be factory machined from a polyethylene blank made at the
manufacturer's factory.
ii A backup flange of ductile iron, cast steel, or other suitable material, made to
Class 150, ANSI B16.5 dimensional standards. Exceptions to these dimensional
standards can be made for systems with exceptionally high operating pressures.
iii) Flange assemblies are connected by bolts of compatible material with gaskets,
of suitable material for the fluid and pressure characteristics, cut to fit the joint.
In all cases, the bolts shall be drawn up evenly and in -line, using procedures
recommended by the manufacturer.
1.6 Mitered Fittings
a) Mitered fittings (e.g. elbows, wyes and tees) shall have the same pressure ratings as
the pipe they will be joined to. All fittings shall be manufactured using the butt- fusion
technique only under factory conditions.
b) Mitered fittings shall be available from the manufacturer with either flanged or plain
ends.
1.7 Quality Assurance Program
a) Resin Evaluation
The manufacturer shall sample all incoming resins and check it against test results
supplied by the resin manufacturer. Samples shall be taken from the top and bottom
of each compartment from every hopper car received_

1.3 pipe Design
a) The pipe shall be designed in accordance with the relationships of ISO - modified
formula (see ASTM F714 -83):
P = 2S
(D -1
Where, S = Hydrostatic Design Stress (psi)
P = Design Pressure Rating (psi)
D = Pipe Outside Diameter (inches)
t = Minimum Wall Thickness (inches)
D jt = Dimension Ratio
b) The design pressure rating shall be derived using the ISO- modified. formula above,
and shall be its maximum normal working pressure in pounds per square inch at
temperatures up to 73.4 degrees Fahrenheit.
c) The Hydrostatic Design Stress shall be 800 psi for PE3408 materials.
D. S.D R. Wall Thi messes Pressure Ratin•s
The SDR's in the following Table follow ANSI Preferred Number Series 10 (ANSI Z17.1 or
ISO 3 and ISO 497). The ANSI Series 10 increases the wall by 25% for each decrease in
SDR number, which increases the pressure rating by approximately 25 %. For each
decrease in SDR number, the external loading characteristics are Approximately Doubled.
S The use of the SDR number for proper pipe selection is the most common and preferred
method currently used in the industry.

SDR 9 200 PSI
SDR 7.3 255 PSI FOR ESPECIALLY HIGH
SDR 6.5 290 PSI STRENGTH, HIGH TEMPERATURES, HIGH
SDR 5.5 355 PSI PRESSURES OR HEAVY ABRASION
1.4 Marking
a) The following shall be continuously indent printed on the pipe, or spaced at intervals
not exceeding 5 feet:
i ) Name and/or trademark of the pipe manufacturer
ii ) Nominal Pipe Size
iii Dimension Ratio
• iv) The letters PE followed by the Hydrostatic Design Basis in 100's of psi
(e.g. PE 3408)
v ) Manufacturing Standard Reference (e.g. ASTM F714 -83)
vi) A production code from which date of and place of manufacture can be
determined.
