Items such as cold set when the joint is deflected underlow-temperature conditions and maximum and minimum stretch in thegasket may be dependent upon the specific chemical compounds used.5.2 Materials in the bell and spigot of the joint s

Requirements Requirements6.1 Joint SurfacesAll surfaces of the joint upon or againstwhich the gasket may bear shall be smooth and free of cracks,fractures, or other imperfections tha

19、t would adversely affect theperformance of the joint.6.2 Joint GeometryThe design of the joint shall include ameans to retain the gasket and prevent it from being uninten-tionally displaced, either during assembly of the joint or duringoperation of the completed pipe system.6.3 Dimensions and Tolera

20、ncesThe provisions of 6.3.1.1apply only to a joining system utilizing a gasket of circularcross section retained in a rectangular groove. Manufacturersmay submit to the purchaser detailed designs for joints utilizinggaskets or grooves, or both, of other geometric shape or forjoints not meeting the c

21、riteria of 6.3.1. Joints not meeting therequirements of this section shall meet the test requirements ofSection 7; such joints shall be acceptable, provided the designis approved by the purchaser prior to manufacture and providedthe test pipe complies with the specified test requirements. Testresult

22、s may be extended to other diameters with the same jointconfiguration, gasket shape and gasket composition providedsubstantially similar gasket compressions and gasket hardnessare maintained. Gasket dimensions may be increased or de-creased provided joint geometry is also appropriately propor-tioned

23、 so that critical relationships like gasket confinement areequal or superior to the tested joint. Design submissions shallinclude joint geometry, tolerances, gasket characteristics, pro-posed plant tests, and such other information as required by thepurchaser to evaluate the joint design for field p

24、erformance.6.3.1 Joints Using Circular Gasket Cross Sections:6.3.1.1 The volume of the annular space provided for thegasket, with the engaged joint at normal joint closure inconcentric position, and neglecting ellipticity of the bell andspigot, shall not be less than the design volume of the gasketf

25、urnished. For a rectangular gasket groove, the cross-sectionalarea of annular space shall be calculated for minimum bellinside diameter, maximum spigot outside diameter, minimumwidth of groove at surface of spigot, and minimum depth ofgroove. The volume of the annular space shall be calculated atthe

26、 centerline of the groove and considering the centroid of thecross-sectional area to be at the midpoint between the surfaceof the groove on which the gasket is seated and the surface ofthe bell, if the groove is on the spigot, or the surface of thespigot, if the groove is in the bell.6.3.1.2 When th

27、e design volume of the gasket is less than75 % of the volume of the annular space in which the gasket isconfined, the dimensions and tolerances of the gasket, bell, andspigot shall be such that, when the outer surface of the spigotand the inner surface of the bell come into contact at somepoint in t

28、heir periphery, the deformation in the gasket shall notexceed 40 % at the point of contact nor be less than 15 % at anypoint. If the design volume of the gasket is 75 % or more of thevolume of the annular space, the deformation of the gasket, asprescribed above, shall not exceed 50 % nor be less tha

29、n 15 %.The cross-sectional area of annular space shall be calculatedfor average bell diameter, average spigot diameter, averagewidth of groove at surface of spigot, and average depth ofgroove. The volume of the annular space shall be calculated atthe centerline of the groove and considering the cent

30、roid of thecross-sectional area to be at the midpoint between the surfaceof the groove on which the gasket is seated and the surface ofthe bell, if the groove is on the spigot, or the surface of thespigot, if the groove is in the bell.NOTE 4It is recognized that a relationship exists between the wat

31、er-tightness of a joint, the gasket deformation, and the ratio of gasket volumeto space volume. For high-pressure applications, it may be necessary toprovide a very high-volume ratio to obtain a sound joint. Some manufac-turers also have developed satisfactory joints with very little gasketdeformati

32、on, but meet the requirements of Section 6 by utilizing a veryhigh-volume ratio.6.3.1.3 When determining the maximum percent deforma-tion of the gasket, the minimum depth of groove and thestretched gasket diameter shall be used and calculations madeat the centerline of the groove. When determining t

33、he mini-mum percent deformation of the gasket, the maximum belldiameter, the minimum spigot diameter, the maximum depth ofgroove, and the stretched gasket diameter shall be used andcalculations made at the centerline of the groove. For gasketdeformation calculations, if the gasket is placed on the s

34、pigotin circumferential tension, the stretched gasket diameter shallbe determined as being the design diameter of the gasketdivided by the square root of (1 + x) where x equals the designpercent of gasket stretch divided by 100. If the gasket is placedin the bell in circumferential compression, the

35、design diameterof the gasket shall be used.6.3.1.4 The taper on all sealing surfaces of the bell andspigot on which the elastomeric gasket may bear after closureof the joint and at any degree of partial closure, except withinthe gasket groove, shall form an angle of not more than 2 withthe longitudi

36、nal axis of the pipe. If the joint design does notincorporate a mechanical locking feature, the joint shall bedesigned and manufactured in such a way that at the positionFIG. 1 Typical Coupling Joint DetailD4161 01 (2010)2of normal joint closure, the parallel surfaces upon which thegasket may bear a

37、fter closure will extend not less than 0.75 in.(20 mm) away from the edges of the gasket groove.6.3.1.5 Circular Gaskets:6.3.1.5.1 In a joint in which the gasket is placed in the bellin circumferential compression, the circumferential length ofthe gasket shall be such that, when inserted into the ga

38、sketgroove, the amount of circumferential compression will be lessthan 4 %. In larger pipe diameters, an adhesive may be requiredto hold the gasket in place prior to installation.6.3.1.5.2 In an elastomeric joint in which the gasket isplaced on the spigot in circumferential tension, the circumfer-en

39、tial length of the gasket shall be such that, when installed inthe gasket groove, the amount of stretch shall not exceed 30 %.6.3.1.5.3 Compute the amount of compression or stretch bycomparing the circumferential length of the centroid of therelaxed gasket with the circumferential length of the cent

40、roidof the compressed or stretched gasket after installation in thebell or on the spigot.6.3.1.5.4 Each gasket shall be manufactured to provide thevolume of elastomer required by the pipe manufacturers jointdesign, with a tolerance of 61 % for gaskets of 1.0-in.(25-mm) diameter and larger. The allow

41、able percentage toler-ance shall vary linearly between 63 % and 61 % for gasketdiameters between 0.5 and 1.0 in. (13 and 25 mm).6.3.2 The tolerances permitted in the construction of thejoint shall be those stated in the pipe manufacturers design asapproved.6.3.3 DrawingsThe manufacturer shall furnis

42、h drawingsof the joint and gasket, including dimensions and tolerances, ifrequested by the purchaser.7. Laboratory Performance Requirements7.1 General:7.1.1 The gasket shall be the sole element depended upon tomake the joint leakproof. The assembled joints shall pass theperformance tests listed in t

43、his section. The tests shall beperformed with components selected to provide minimumcompression in the gasket. The internal hydrostatic pressuresrequired in 7.2 and 7.3 shall be two times the rated pressure, ifthe pipe is manufactured for pressure service, or 29 psi (200kPa), if the pipe is manufact

44、ured for nonpressure service.7.1.2 Laboratory hydrostatic pressure tests on joints shall bemade on an assembly of two sections of pipe properlyconnected in accordance with the joint design. Suitable bulk-heads may be provided within the pipe adjacent to and oneither side of the joint, or the outer e

45、nds of the two jointed pipesections may be bulkheaded. Restraints may be provided at thejoint to resist transverse thrust. No coatings, fillings, orpackings shall be placed prior to the hydrostatic tests.7.2 Pipes in Angularly Deflected PositionUsing a pipeand joint system as described in 7.1.2, the

46、 test sections shall bedeflected angularly, as shown in Fig. 2, and subjected to theappropriate internal hydrostatic test pressure for 10 min with-out leakage. The angle defined by the joint openings given inFig. 2 is the angle between the axis of the two joined pipes.7.2.1 Joints intended for use o

47、f pressures greater than 250psi may have lower allowable angular deflections than thosegiven in Fig. 2 by manufacturer purchaser agreement. Thejoints shall be tested at the manufacturers maximum allowedangular deflection.7.2.2 Determine the joint opening by scribing a circumfer-ential index mark on

48、the outside of the pipe a sufficient distancefrom the spigot end to be visible when the pipe is joined.Measure the maximum and minimum distance from the end ofthe bell to the mark. The difference equals the joint opening.Fig. 2 illustrates a typical joint in closed and deflected positionsand the ind

49、ex mark.NOTE 5This test is a laboratory performance test of joint integrity andis not indicative of allowable angular deflections in field installations. Inactual installations, deflections greater than the manufacturers recom-mended maximum should be avoided, and elbows, bends, or specialfittings should be used in such cases.7.3 Pipes in Laterally Offset Position (Shear Loading)Using a pipe and joint system as described in 7.1.2, the testsections shall be deflected while the pipe units are in ahorizontal position, as shown in Fig. 3, by applying a perpen-dicular loa
