1、Designation: D2737 121An American National StandardStandard Specification forPolyethylene (PE) Plastic Tubing1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D2737; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of la

2、st revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1NOTETable X1.1 was editorially corrected in Februa

3、ry 2012.1. Scope*1.1 This specification covers polyethylene (PE) plastic tub-ing in outside diameters and SDRs that are pressure rated forwater. Included are requirements for PE compounds, andrequirements and test methods for PE plastic tubing workman-ship, dimensions, elevated temperature sustained

4、 pressure,burst pressure and marking.1.2 The text of this specification references notes, footnotes,and appendixes which provide explanatory material. Thesenotes and footnotes shall not be considered as requirements ofthe specification. Notes and footnotes in tables and figures, andSupplementary Req

5、uirements are requirements of the specifi-cation.1.3 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematicalconversions to SI units that are provided for information onlyand are not considered standard.NOTE 1Joining PE plastic tubing with

6、 fittings that require flaring thetubing is not recommended because Practice D3140, the technique used tomake the flare has been withdrawn (discontinued).NOTE 2References and PE compound descriptions for PE2305,PE2406, PE3306, PE3406, and PE3408 have been removed due tochanges in Specification D3350

7、 and PPI TR-3. For removed designations,refer to previous editions of Specification D2737, Specification D3350,PPI TR-3 and PPI TR-4. The removal of these PE compounds does notaffect pipelines that are in service. PE compounds and material designa-tions resulting from changes in Specification D3350

8、and PPI TR-3 areaddressed in Section 5.1.4 The following safety hazards caveat pertains only to thetest methods portion, Section 7, of this specification: Thisstandard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns,if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the userof this
