Significance and Use5.1 This test
19、 method provides for determining the physicaldimensions of thermoplastic pipe and fittings. This test methodis suitable for determination of dimensional compliance withproduct specifications.6. General6.1 Specimen PreparationPipe specimens shall be cleanlycut and burrs removed. Some materials, such
20、as polyolefinplastics, may undergo dimensional change near cut ends due tointernal stresses. When this condition is noted, care shall betaken to make measurements at a location which is not soaffected.6.2 ConditioningCondition the test specimens at 73.4 63.6F (23 6 2C) and 50 6 5 % relative humidity
21、 for not lessthan 40 h prior to test in accordance with Procedure A ofPractice D618, for those tests where conditioning is required.6.3 Test ConditionsConduct tests in the Standard Labora-tory Atmosphere of 73.4 6 3.6F (23 6 2C) and 50 6 5%relative humidity, unless otherwise specified in the test me
