This standard covers 4-in. through 48-in. (100 mm through 1,500 mm) polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pressure pipe and fabricated fittings. Standard pipe outside diameters (ODs) conform to the ductile iron and cast iron sizing system, referred to as cast iron or (CIOD), and steel pipe, referred to as (IPS). Pressureclasses range from 80 psi (550 kPa) to 305 psi (2,100 kPa).

This standard can be referenced in documents for purchasing and receiving PVC pressure pipe and fabricated fittings, 4-in. (100-mm) through 60-in. (1,500-mm). The stipulations of this standard apply when this document has been referenced and then only to PVC pressure pipe and fabricated fittings, 4 in. (100 mm) through 60 in. (1,500 mm).
