Designation:D159918Standard Test Method forResistance to Short-Time Hydraulic Pressure of PlasticPipe,Tubing,and Fittings1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D1599;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the U.S.Department of Defense.1.Scope*1.1 This test method covers the determination of the resis-tance of thermoplastic pipe,tubing and fittings,and reinforcedthermosetting pipe and reinforced thermoplastic pipe to hy-draulic pressure in a short time period.Procedure A is used todetermine burst pressure of a specimen if the mode of failureis to be determined.Procedure B is used to determine that aspecimen complies with a minimum burst requirement.NOTE1Reinforced thermoplastic pipe is a three-layer constructionconsisting of a thermoplastic core layer around which is wound acontinuous helical reinforcement layer.A protective thermoplastic coverlayer is applied over the reinforcement.For design and pressure,thethermoplastic core and cover layers are not considered hoop stress bearingelements.All of the hoop stress is taken up by the reinforcement layer.1.2 This test method is suitable for establishing laboratorytesting requirements for quality control purposes or for pro-curement specifications.1.3 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas standard.The values given in parentheses are mathematicalconversions to SI units that are provided for information onlyand are not considered standard.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety,health,and environmental practices and deter-mine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.5 This international standard was developed in accor-dance with internationally recognized principles on standard-ization established in the Decision on Principles for theDevelopment of International Standards,Guides and Recom-mendations issued by the World Trade Organization TechnicalBarriers to Trade(TBT)Committee.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:2D2122 Test Method for Determining Dimensions of Ther-moplastic Pipe and FittingsD3517 Specificationfor“Fiberglass”(Glass-Fiber-Reinforced Thermosetting-Resin)Pressure PipeD3567 Practice for Determining Dimensions of“Fiberglass”(Glass-Fiber-Reinforced Thermosetting Resin)Pipe andFittings3.Summary of Test Method3.1 This test method consists of loading a specimen tofailure,or a predetermined minimum level,in short-timeinterval by means of continuously increasing internalhydraulic-pressure while immersed in a controlled-temperatureenvironment.4.Significance and Use4.1 This test method establishes the short term hydraulicfailure pressure of thermoplastic pipe,tubing and fittings,andreinforced thermosetting pipe,and reinforced thermoplasticpipe.Data obtained by this test method are of use only inpredicting the behavior of pipe,tubing,and fittings underconditions of temperature,time,method of loading,and hoopstress similar to those used in the actual test.They are generallynot indicative of the long-term strength of thermoplastic orreinforced thermosetting resin pipe,tubing,and fittings,andreinforced thermoplastic pipe.4.2 Procurement specifications utilizing this test methodmay stipulate a minimum and maximum time for failure otherthan the 60 to 70 s listed in 9.1.3.Either the internal hydraulicpressure or the hoop stress may be listed in the requirements.NOTE2Many thermoplastics give significantly different burststrengths depending on the time to failure.For instance,significantdifferences have been observed between failure times of 65 and 85 s.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee F17 on PlasticPiping Systems and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee F17.40 on TestMethods.Current edition approved Sept.1,2018.Published September 2018.Originallyapproved in 1962.Last previous edition approved in 2014 as D1599 141.DOI:10.1520/D1599-182For referenced ASTM standards,visit the ASTM website,www.astm.org,orcontact ASTM Customer Service at serviceastm.org.For Annual Book of ASTMStandards volume information,refer to the standards Document Summary page onthe ASTM website.*A Summary of Changes section appears at the end of this standardCopyright ASTM International,100 Barr Harbor Drive,PO Box C700,West Conshohocken,PA 19428-2959.United StatesThis international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for theDevelopment of International Standards,Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Tra
