Pig Iron and Cast Iron Sectional Committee, MTD 6

FOREWORD
This Indian Standard (Third Revision) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards, after the draft finalized
by the Pig Iron and Cast Iron Sectional Committee had been approved by the Metallurgical Engineering Division
Council.
This standard was first published in 1977 and then revised in 1990 and 1994. While revising this standard, in
light of the experience gained during these years, the committee has decided to revise this standard taking note
of the revision and publication of EN 545 : 1994 and IS0 2531 : 1998 (E).
In this revision the following main modifications have been made:

4 Definition of various terms have been included to avoid ambiguity;

b) Dimensions from DN 80to DN 2000have been incorporated aligning them with IS0 253 1 : 1998 (E)
and EN 545 : 1994;
c) Thickness of Class K7 and K8 have been increased based on current International practice and method
of production facilities in this country;
4 Requirements for coating and lining have been modified,
4 To have a proper control on the quality of the pipes, a clause on quality assurance has also been
incorporated;
fl The standard has been generally updated taking into account the modern trend in this respect in
other International specifications particularly the current changes made in EN 545 : 1994 and
IS0 253 1 : 1998 (E); and
g) As per current international practice, requirements of mass has been deleted from the standard.
Ductile iron, also called nodular iron or spheroidal graphite iron, is characterized by the presence of graphite in
nodular or spheroidal form in the resultant casting. It differs from cast iron by greater tensile strength and its
significant elongation at break. Ductile iron offers:
a) high resistance against breakage due to impact;
b) high tensile strength, comparable to that of mild steel so that the pipes can be used for higher working
pressure;
c) traditional corrosion resistance, comparable to that of cast iron; and
d) lighter in mass as compared to cast iron pipes.
In order to have International co-ordination and harmonization with other International Standards, assistance
has been derived from the following publications:
IS0 2531 : 1998(E) Ductile iron pipes, fittings and accessories and their joints for water or gas
application, issued by the International Organization for Standardization
(ISO)
IS0 7186 : 1996(E) Ductile iron products for sewage applications
IS0 4179 : 1985 Ductile iron pipes for pressure and non-pressure pipelines - Centrifugal
cement mortar lining - General requirements
IS0 8179-l : 1995 Ductile iron pipes - External coating: Part 1 Metallic zinc with finishing
layer
IS0 8179-2 : 1995 Ductile iron pipes - External coating: Part 2 Zinc rich paint with finishing
layer
