BIS standards and indicative tests for polymer pipes and fittings used in water supply, sewerage and plumbing.
Note: For gravity sewer applications, PVC-U (IS 15328) and HDPE (IS 14333) are both used depending on client specifications and site conditions.
They assess long-term performance: ESCR checks resistance to slow crack growth; OIT measures antioxidant stability; Carbon black content/dispersion ensures UV resistance and uniformity — all essential for durability in service.
IS 13592 covers PVC-U SWR pipes for soil/waste/rainwater within building plumbing, emphasizing impact/VST/reversion and watertight joints. IS 15328 covers non-pressure sewerage/drainage pipes, adding ring stiffness/flexibility for underground loads.
