Overview
ISO 15876-2:2017/Amd 1:2020 is an important amendment to the international standard governing plastics piping systems for hot and cold water installations, specifically focusing on polybutene (PB) pipes. This document updates Part 2 of the series, which addresses the specifications and dimensions of polybutene pipes used for water distribution systems. Published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), this amendment refines and replaces previous references and technical details to align with the most current industrial practices and standards.
Key Topics
This ISO amendment covers critical updates to the following areas related to polybutene piping:
- Pipe dimensions: The update includes specific dimensional requirements for pipes classified under various size series (S 10, S 8, S 6.3, S 5, S 4, and S 3.2), ensuring precision in nominal diameters, outside diameters, and wall thicknesses.
- Tolerance specifications: Detailed tolerances on wall thickness are defined, with precise numerical limits corresponding to different thickness ranges to guarantee manufacturing consistency and product quality.
- Standards alignment: The amendment replaces earlier references to ISO 15876-1:2003 with the updated ISO 15876-1:2017, reinforcing traceability and harmonization across the polybutene piping system standards.
- Quality assurance: Adherence to ISO’s prescribed tolerance levels ensures reliable performance of polybutene pipes under varying service conditions for both hot and cold water applications.
Applications
The ISO 15876-2 amendment has considerable practical value in the design, manufacture, and installation of polybutene piping systems, widely used for:
- Residential and commercial water supply systems: Ensuring safe and reliable delivery of hot and cold water in buildings.
- Heating installations: Compatibility with heating systems where polybutene pipes provide flexibility and durability.
- Plumbing and sanitary applications: Guaranteeing compliance with norms for potable water systems.
- Replacement and repair projects: Providing clear benchmarks for pipe dimensions and tolerances that contractors and engineers use to select proper materials.
Adoption of this standard amendment helps manufacturers improve product consistency, installers maintain compliance with regulatory requirements, and end-users enjoy the benefits of safe and efficient water distribution systems.
Related Standards
ISO 15876-2:2017/Amd 1:2020 is part of a series on polybutene piping systems, interconnected with several relevant standards:
- ISO 15876-1:2017: Specifications for general requirements and test methods applied to polybutene piping components.
- ISO 4065: Dimensions and tolerances for plastic piping systems, referenced for pipe dimension conformity.
- ISO 11922-1: Tolerance levels classification, applied to wall thickness tolerances outlined in this amendment.
- Other ISO/TC 138 standards covering plastic tubes, fittings, and valves for fluid transport, forming a comprehensive regulatory framework for piping systems.
Understanding this network of standards allows professionals to ensure comprehensive compliance when designing or working with polybutene piping in various water installation contexts.

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
