Description (English):

This document specifies a method for determining the tensile properties of pipes made of unplasticized poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC-U), oriented unplasticized poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC-O), chlorinated poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC-C) and high-impact poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC-HI, PVC-M or PVC-A), and in particular the following properties: — the stress at yield and stress at break; — the elongation at break. NOTE The general method of test for the determination of the tensile properties of thermoplastics pipes is given in ISO 6259‑1. This document also gives, for information purposes only, the corresponding basic specifications in Annexes A, B, C and D.

Abstract

Overview

EN ISO 6259-2:2020 - Thermoplastics pipes: Determination of tensile properties (Part 2) - provides a standardized test method for measuring the tensile behaviour of pipes made from PVC-U, PVC-O, PVC-C and PVC-HI. Prepared by ISO/TC 138 in cooperation with CEN/TC 155, this 2020 edition updates the earlier 1997 version, introduces PVC-O, and adds stress at break as a recorded characteristic. The standard is intended for testing pipes “as supplied” and gives guidance for sampling, specimen preparation, testing and reporting.

Key topics and requirements

Scope and purpose: Method for determining tensile properties of unplasticized, oriented, chlorinated and high‑impact PVC pipes.
Measured properties: Stress at yield, stress at break and elongation at break (principal outputs).
Test specimen guidance: Sampling from the pipe, dimensions, cutting and machining methods for thin and thick‑walled pipes.
Test conditions: Conditioning, test speed, apparatus and general procedure are specified (with reference to ISO 6259‑1 for general conditions).
Result expression and reporting: How to calculate and report tensile results, plus required test report contents.
Informative annexes: Annexes A–D provide basic specifications for PVC-U, PVC-O, PVC-C and PVC-HI pipes (for information only).
Standards linkage: Developed on the basis of ISO 527‑1 / ISO 527‑2; cross-references ISO 6259‑1 for general test conditions.

Practical applications

Quality control and production monitoring of PVC pipe manufacturing.
Material verification during acceptance testing of thermoplastic piping products.
Comparative testing for research & development when selecting PVC grades or assessing process changes.
Supporting conformity assessment and product documentation for procurement or regulatory compliance.

Who uses this standard

Pipe and compound manufacturers (process control, product development)
Independent test laboratories and certification bodies
Specifiers, engineers and procurement professionals working on water, drainage and industrial piping systems
Regulators and standards committees evaluating product performance or harmonized requirements
