1、Designation: C 1440 03Standard Specification forThermoplastic Elastomeric (TPE) Gasket Materials for Drain,Waste, and Vent (DWV), Sewer, Sanitary and StormPlumbing Systems1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C 1440; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year

2、oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers thermoplastic elastomeric(TPE)

3、 gasket materials for preformed elastomeric gaskets usedin shielded and non-shielded mechanical couplings. Thesecouplings are used in gravity flow drain, waste and vent(DWV), sewer, sanitary and storm plumbing systems. Theyinclude couplings to join similar and dissimilar piping sizesand material.1.2

4、 The values stated in metric or inch/pound units shall beregarded separately as normative for this specification. Thevalues in each system are not exact equivalents; therefore, eachsystem shall be used independently without combining values.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesaf

5、ety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Materials and Manufacture4.1 Gaskets

9、shall be made of virgin thermoplastic elasto-meric compound containing only clean reworked thermoplasticelastomer material from the manufacturers own production ofthe same compound.4.2 Where splices are made in the gasket, the strength of thesplice shall be such that the gasket will withstand the st

10、retchtest described in 8.9 with no visible separation or peeling.4.3 Many thermoplastic elastomeric materials (TPE) aretemperature sensitive. Designed operating temperature rangefor the 87 Shore A TPE materials is 0 to 130 F (18 to55C). These materials are not designed or intended forprolonged opera

11、tion outside this range.5. Physical Properties5.1 Gaskets representative of the manufacturers productionshall be selected as specified in Section 7 and shall conform tothe requirements for physical properties listed in Table 1 whentested in accordance with the methods specified in Section 8.6. Workm

12、anship, Finish and Appearance6.1 The surface of the gasket shall be smooth and free ofpitting, cracks, blisters, air marks, and any other imperfectionsthat will affect its behavior in service. The body of the gasketshall be free of porosity and air pockets.1This Specification is under the jurisdicti

15、 West Conshohocken, PA 19428-2959, United States.6.2 Neither the flash thickness nor the flash extension shallexceed 1/32 in. (0.8 mm), at any point on the ring.6.3 The offset, or failure of the mold to register accurately,shall not exceed 1/64 in. (0.4 mm).7. Sampling7.1 For the stretch test specif

16、ied in 8.9, sample gaskets shallbe selected at random from each shipment of gaskets. For eachof the other tests, gaskets shall be selected at random asrequired by the method of test specified.8. Test Methods8.1 HardnessTest the gasket material for hardness inaccordance with Test Method D 2240. As re

17、quired, use TestMethod D 1415 as the referee method. Make hardness mea-surements on specimens prepared in accordance with 8.2.However, hardness readings for guidance purposes shall betaken directly on the gasket, recognizing that these shall bepermitted to vary slightly from those taken on the dumbb

18、ellspecimens.8.2 Elongation and Tensile StrengthTest the gasket mate-rial for elongation and tensile strength in accordance with TestMethod D 412. Cut standard ASTM Type C dumbbell speci-mens conforming to Fig. 1 (Apparatus for Tensile Set Test) ofTest Method D 412 from sections of the gasket for th

19、is test. Toobtain a uniform thickness, these sections shall be permitted tobe buffed prior to cutting into dumbbell specimens, so as toproduce a finely ground surface without cuts or burns.8.3 Tear StrengthTest the gasket material for tear strengthin accordance with Test Method D 624 using Die C.8.4

20、 Compression SetTest the gasket material for compres-sion set using Test Method D 395. For materials with ahardness of 90 IRHD or higher Method A must be used. Formaterials with a hardness less than 90 IRHD Method B must beused. Oven age samples for 22 h at 70 6 1C (158 6 2F).When using Test Method

21、A, there shall be a maximumdimensional change of 12 %. When using Test Method B, thereshall be a maximum dimensional change of 25 %.8.5 Heat AgingTest the gasket material for heat aging inaccordance with Test Method D 573.

22、Make hardness measurements as specified in 8.1.8.6 Water AbsorptionTest the gasket material for weightincrease due to water absorption in accordance with TestMethod D 471. If a 1 in. (25.4 mm) specimen cannot be cutfrom the sample gasket, use the greatest width obtainable.Immerse the test specimen i

23、n distilled water at 70 6 2C (1586 4F) for seven days.8.7 Ozone ResistanceTest the gasket material for ozoneresistance in accordance with Test Method D 1149, usingspecimens and procedure specified under Method B.

24、C (104 6 4F) with a 20 %extension. Use a two-power hand magnification glass toexamine the gasket8.8 Oil ImmersionTest the gasket material for volumedecrease due to oil absorption in accordance with Test MethodD 471. If a 1-in. (25.4 mm) specimen cannot be cut from thesample gasket, use the greatest

25、width obtainable. The testspecimen shall be immersed in IRM 903 oil for 70 h at 100 62C (212 6 4F).8.9 Stretch Test for Spliced GasketsStretch gaskets untilthe circumference is increased by 50 %, then visually inspectfor defects as described in 4.2 and 6.1. One percent of the totalspliced gaskets sh

26、all be tested with no failures.9.

Whenspecified

27、 in the purchase order or contract, a report of the testresults shall be furnished.10. Marking10.1 Each gasket shall be permanently marked with clearlylegible letters. These markings shall include the gasket manu-facturers name or registered trademark, the pipe size and class,the year of manufacture
