The standard DIN ISO 16486-3 is the German version of ISO 16486-3. This standard specifies the physical and mechanical properties of fittings made from unplasticized polyamide (PA-U) in accordance with ISO 16486-1, intended to be buried and used for the supply of gaseous fuels. It also specifies the test parameters for the test methods to which it refers. The DIN ISO 16486 series of standards is aimed at manufacturers and users of pipes, fittings and valves made from unplasticized polyamides (PA-U). This part contains aspects of quality in particular. ISO 16486-3:2012 has been prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 138 "Plastics pipes, fittings and valves for the transport of fluids", Subcommittee SC 4 "Plastics pipes and fittings for the supply of gaseous fuels". The responsible German committee is Working Committee NA 054-05-08 AA "Kunststoff-Rohrleitungssysteme für die Gasversorgung" ("Plastics piping systems for the supply of gaseous fuels") at DIN Standards Committee Plastics (FNK).
