3、Terminol-ogy C 822 and conforming to Specifications C14, C76, C 412,C 478, C 506, C 507, C 655, C 985, C 1417, and C 1433.1.1.1 Type I, Rubber and Mastic Bands.1.1.2 Type II, Plastic Film and Mesh Reinforced MasticBands.1.1.3 Type III, Chemically-Bonded Adhesive Butyl Bands.1.2 This specification is
4、 the inch-pound companion toSpecification C 877M; therefore, no SI equivalents are pre-sented in the specification.NOTE 1This specification covers only the design and material of thesealing bands. Sealing bands covered by this specification are adequate,when properly installed, for external hydrosta
5、tic pressures up to 13 psi,(30 ft) without leakage. The amount of infiltration or exfiltration flow inan installed pipeline is dependent upon many factors other than the sealingbands; allowable quantities and suitable testing of the installed pipelineand system must be covered by other specification

Basis of Acceptance4.1 The acceptability of the sealing bands shall be deter-mined by the results of th
17、e physical tests prescribed in thisspecification, if and when required, and by inspection todetermine whether the sealing bands conform to this specifi-cation as to design and freedom from defects.5. Materials and Manufacture for Sealing Bands5.1 Type I, Rubber and Mastic Bands:5.1.1 Sealing bands s
18、hall be composed of rubber, mastic,and protective film elements as schematically shown in Fig. 1and with dimensions as required in the following:5.1.1.1 Length of Sealing BandFor a given pipe size, thelength of the sealing band as furnished shall be such that afterbeing stretched longitudinally 8 to
19、 12 % as part of theinstallation procedure, the sealing band will encircle theoutside perimeter of the pipe and overlap by an amount equalto, but not less than, the width of the sealing band. Sealingbands may be furnished in the required length or multiplesthereof.5.1.1.2 Width of Sealing BandThe wi
20、dth of the sealingband shall conform to the requirements of Table 1.5.1.2 Rubber ElementThe rubber element shall be ex-truded or molded from a high-grade rubber compound andshall be cured in such a manner that any cross section will bedense, homogeneous, and free of porosity, blisters, pitting, ando
