High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) Conduit Specification by ASTM International

This standard outlines material, dimensional, craftsmanship, and performance needs for polyethylene conduit, duct, and innerduct used in non-pressure applications to safeguard fiber optic and power cables. HDPE conduit adhering to this standard should be produced as OD or ID controlled solid wall, with or without internal or external ribs in IPS types SDR 9, SDR 11, SDR 13.5, DR 15.5, Schedule 40, Schedule 80, and 'True-sized' and SIDR dimensions. The internal or external surface may contain a coextruded layer, provided the finished conduit meets this specification's product requirements.

• Non-pressure application requirements: Material, dimensions, workmanship, and performance for polyethylene conduit, duct, and innerduct
• HDPE conduit construction: OD or ID controlled solid wall, with or without ribs, in various IPS types
• Coextruded layer allowance: External or internal surface may contain a coextruded layer, provided the finished conduit meets product requirements
• Unit standard: Values in inch-pound units are the standard
• Standard development: This international standard adheres to recognized principles on standardization, as per the WTO TBT Committee
