Work Item
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.
