23、ropean Standard specifies requirements and test methods for non-hardening sealing materials (jointing compounds) for metallic threaded joints. These jointing compounds applied as liquid, gel, paste or tape of non-woven synthetic fibres impregnated with jointing compound paste do at the most only par

24、tly harden or cure. This enables the threaded joint to be easily dismantled with commercial tools at ambient temperatures without damage of the threads. There are three classes of jointing compounds defined by their properties and application range. Class A jointing compounds are suitable for normal

25、 installation purposes for 1st, 2nd and 3rd family gases and heating systems. Class B jointing compounds are normally used in gas appliances and their auxiliary equipment, whereas Class C jointing compounds are for use in LPG storage application. Jointing compounds may be suitable for one or more cl

26、asses. A universally applicable jointing compound may be used for all gas, potable water, and hot water installation. In respect of potential adverse effects of the jointing compounds covered by this European Standard on the quality of water intended for human consumption this Standard provides no i

27、nformation as to whether the jointing compounds may be used without restriction in any of the Member States of the EU or EFTA. The use and characteristics of the jointing compounds should comply with current regulations, where they exist, depending on the acceptance of verifiable European criteria.

28、Since the application techniques, sometimes due to different pressure limits and safety requirements, differ from country to country, it is difficult to harmonize the existing national standards and approval requirements for Class A jointing compounds. One particular point relates to the use of seal

29、ant supporting bases (e.g. hemp, flax or synthetic fibres). Whilst these should not be used to fill large gaps between badly fitting threads, in some countries they may be used to ensure that the jointing compound remains in its position on the male thread and is not stripped off during assembly of

30、the joint. It will be up to the manufacturers handling instructions (and the country of use) whether jointing compounds of Class A will be applied with or without such sealant supporting bases. Supporting bases are not used with Classes B and C jointing compounds. The adjustment of prefabricated par

31、ts of an installation requires sometimes the assembled taper/parallel threaded joints to be turned back up to an angle of 45. To ensure that jointing compounds fulfil this requirement in countries where such handling techniques are used, an additional requirement concerning the turn back test has be

32、en included. Such jointing compounds are additionally designated with Rp. 1 Scope This European Standard specifies requirements and test methods for non-hardening sealing materials (hereafter referred to as jointing compounds) suitable for sealing threaded metallic joints such as those specified in

33、ISO 7-1. These jointing compounds are for use in contact with 1st family gases (town gas), 2nd family gases (natural gas) and 3rd family gases (liquefied petroleum gases (LPG) not including LPG in the liquid form) and hot water of heating systems (Class A), in gas appliances and their auxiliary equi

34、pment (Class B) as well as in LPG storage (Class C) according to table 1. Anaerobic jointing compounds are covered by EN 751-1, non-hardening sealing materials in the form of PTFE-tapes are covered by EN 751-3. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference,

41、thout the addition of sealant supporting bases) or as tape of non-woven synthetic fibres impregnated with jointing compound to the threads. 3.2 sealant supporting bases Materials (e.g. hemp, flax or synthetic fibres) which may be used in some countries to support jointing compound in large threaded

42、joints and ensure that the jointing compound remains in its position on the male thread and is not stripped off during assembly of the joint. 3.3 gas family For further information on types of gases see EN 437. 3.4 batch Any quantity of jointing compound manufactured in a single mix at one time. 4 C
