2 Pipes and fittings
2.1 Materials and manufacture
.Pipes and fittings shall be made from suitable clays'':and frred to'vitrification. The clays shall be of such
a quality and homogeneity that the final product isin accordance with this standard. Pipes and fittings
. shall be.sound and free from such defects as wouldimpair their function when rn servrce.
Visual imperfections, such as missing glaze,unevenness, creasings in the transition from pipe tosocket and slight surface damage are acceptable,providing the impermeability, durability and flowcharacteristics of the pipes and fittings areunaffected.
o Bsl 12.1999
EN 295-1:1991
Pipes and fittings may be unglazed or glazed on theinierior and/or exterior. When glazed they need notbe glazed on the jointing surfaces ofthe spigot andsocket.Pipes and fittings are regarded as rigid (stif0' thejoints as flexible, and all have a high corrosionreslstance.
Fittings may be completed by fxing fued partstogether.Products may be surface treated after firing.
