ISO 6259-2 specifies the tensile-testing method for thermoplastics pipes made from PVC (unplasticized and related) materials. To match this to your program, talk with our team.
What ISO 6259-2 Covers
It applies the general ISO 6259-1 approach to PVC pipe, fixing specimen and test conditions so PVC pipe tensile results are comparable.
How the Test Is Run
A specimen from the PVC pipe wall is pulled at a defined speed, and tensile strength and elongation at break are determined.
Why It Matters
PVC pipe is qualified against ISO 6259-2; consistent specimen preparation from the pipe wall keeps results comparable.
