ASTM D 1710 Document Information:
Title
Standard Specification for Extruded Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) Rod, Heavy Walled Tubing and Basic Shapes
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Apr 1, 2008
Scope:
This specification covers extruded polytetrafluoroethylene
(PTFE) rod, heavy-walled tubing, and basic shapes manufactured from
the PTFE resin of Specification D 4894 and reprocessed PTFE resin
(as defined in Guides D 5033 and D 7209).
The specification covers all sizes of rod, tubing, and basic
shapes with a wall thickness of 1.6 mm (1/16 in.) or greater. These
materials must be made wholly from PTFE and produced in accordance
with good commercial ram extrusion practices.
NOTE 1—This specification and ISO/DIS 13000-1 (1997) and ISO/DIS
13000-2 (1997) differ in approach, however, data obtained using
either are technically equivalent.
NOTE 2—For compression molded PTFE materials, see Specification
D 3294. Material that can be certified to Specification D 3294 may
be substituted for Specification D 1710, however the reverse in not
true.
The values stated in SI units, as detailed in IEEE/ASTM SI 10
are to be regarded as the standard. The inch-pound units given in
parentheses are provided for information only.
The following precautionary caveat pertains to the test methods
portion, Section 12, only of this specification: This standard
does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any,
associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of
this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices
and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to
use.
*A Summary of Changes section appears at the end of this
standard.
