ISO 9854-2 — Charpy impact test conditions for thermoplastics pipes

← Back to all standards

ISO 9854-2 specifies the selected test conditions used with ISO 9854-1 for the Charpy impact testing of thermoplastics pipes for the transport of fluids. To match this to your program, talk with our team.

What ISO 9854-2 Covers

It defines the impact energy, specimen configuration, supports, and test temperature to use for pipes of various thermoplastic materials, applied together with the general method in Part 1.

How the Test Is Run

Following the general Part 1 method, a specimen cut from the pipe wall is struck by a pendulum under the specific conditions this part fixes for the pipe material, and the Charpy impact strength is recorded.

Why It Matters

Fixing the test conditions for each pipe material makes Charpy results directly comparable between labs and grades; a calibrated pendulum and correct specimen preparation from the pipe are essential.
