ASTM WK81119

Revision of F477-14(2021) Standard Specification for Elastomeric Seals (Gaskets) for Joining Plastic Pipe

Rationale

There is no percentage by polymer content requirements for standard gaskets. Similarly in section 6.1.1 for oil resistant gaskets 50% by volume oil resistant polymer is not an essential requirement.
Volume change, when immersed in IRM903 oil is critical requirements, recommend reducing maximum volume change to 40% in table 3.
