United States15. Physical Requirements5.
16、1 The sealing portion of the gasket shall comply with thephysical requirements listed in Table 1 when tested in accor-dance with the methods in Section 8.NOTE 2Some gasket incorporated a high durometer elastomeric ornonelastomeric, that is, metal or plastic material, as a reinforcement orretaining f
17、eature, or both. These materials do not alter the physicalproperties of the sealing portion of the gasket and should not be tested assuch, or expected to meet the material requirements listed in Table 1.NOTE 3The materials used for retaining or reinforcement, or both,should not encroach upon the sea
18、ling surfaces of the gasket, and havephysical properties which are adequate for the anticipated usage of thegasket.5.1.1 HardnessA variation of 6 5 points of Type Adurometer from the manufacturers specified hardness shall beallowed when tested in accordance with 8.3.5.1.2 Elongation for the harder p
19、ortion of multi-durometergaskets shall not be less than 100 %. The elongation for thesofter portion of the gasket shall meet the requirements ofTable 1.5.1.3 Force Decay (Stress Relaxation)Using the proce-dure in D6147, the remaining stress shall be a minimum of40 % of the initial stress. Testing sh
20、all be done at 70 6 2C(158 6 4F) for a minimum of 168 h. (Method B)6. Dimensions, Mass, and Permissible Variations6.1 When in its final assembled position, the gasket shall notbe stretched more than 30 % of its original circumference.NOTE 4Excessive stretch may have deleterious effect on TPELgaskets
21、. The minimum stretch compatible with the proper performance ofthe gasket should be used at all times.6.2 The gaskets shall conform to the dimensions specifiedby the manufacturer of the pipe or fittings with which thegaskets are to be used, with a tolerance of 6 3 % on allcross-sectional dimensions,
22、 and 6 1 % on all diametricaldimensions unless otherwise agreed upon by the pipe or fittingmanufacturer and the purchaser.6.3 For molded gaskets or gasket material, the permissibleflash shall be a maximum of + 0.80mm (0.032 in.). Maximummold mismatch shall not exceed 0.25 mm (0.010 in).7. Workmanshi
23、p, Finish, and Appearance7.1 All gaskets shall be extruded or molded in such amanner that any cross section will be dense, homogeneous, andfree of porosity, blisters, pitting, or other imperfections.7.2 Where a splice is used in the manufacture of the gasket,the strength shall be such that the gaske
24、t shall withstand 100 %elongation over the part of the gasket that includes the splicewith no visible separation of the splice. (While in a stretchedposition the gasket shall be rotated in the spliced area aminimum of 180 in each direction in order to inspect forseparation. In addition, any portion
25、of the splice shall becapable of passing a bend test without visible separation.) Thebend test for circular gaskets is defined as wrapping the portionof the unstretched gasket containing the splice a minimum of180 and a maximum of 270 around a rod of a diameter equalto the cross-section diameter of
26、the gasket.8. Test Methods8.1 Perform laboratory tests to determine the physical prop-erties of the gaskets to be furnished under this specification on:(1) the finished product as supplied, (2) test specimens takenfrom the finished product, or (3) from specimens of fabricationof the same elastomeric
