European foreword
This document (EN 12814-8:2021) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 249 “Plastics”,
the secretariat of which is held by NBN.
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an
identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by July 2021, and conflicting national standards shall be
withdrawn at the latest by July 2021.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of

This document supersedes EN 12814-8:2001.
In comparison with the previous edition, the following technical modifications have been made:
— PVC-RI has been removed because it is no longer used in the designation;
— bend angle data for PVC-NI has been replaced by PVC-U;
— ram displacement requirements for PP-B and PP-H have been added;
— minimum short-term tensile welding factor for extrusion welding PVC-U has been added.
According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organisations of the
following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia,
Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland,

Kingdom.
1 Scope
This document provides the requirements for the tests made on welded thermoplastics semi-finished
products.
The selection of the appropriate test method(s) is made in accordance with the particular type and
application of welded product.
The test results depend on the conditions of manufacture for the test specimen and on the test conditions.
They can therefore only be related to the behaviour of the product or can only be used for designing a
structure, if the test conditions can be related to the service conditions.
